Firm profile

FINTRX

Overview

QST Capital LLC is a compact, hedge fund–focused investment adviser that combines pooled vehicles with separately managed accounts. The firm manages both proprietary hedge-fund strategies and discretionary portfolios for individuals, families and institutional clients. Its compensation model includes a percentage-of-assets fee and performance-based fees, a structure consistent with active, manager-driven strategies. Investment activity centers on private funds and alternative strategies. The firm runs pooled hedge funds that account for most of its assets while also maintaining SMAs that are heavily weighted to private fund exposures. QST Capital does not identify as an ESG-focused manager and is not listed as a multi-state adviser. QST Capital’s advisory scope covers portfolio management for individuals and small businesses, portfolio management for pooled investment vehicles, and portfolio management for businesses or institutions. That mix suggests the firm runs both fund-level trading and tailored client accounts, allocating between liquid public markets and less liquid alternative vehicles where appropriate.
