Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Quantcore Capital Management?
Hoon Kim is the founder, Chief Investment Officer, and sole portfolio manager. He built the firm's proprietary quantitative model and personally conducts fundamental reviews of the top- and bottom-ranked names. No other named portfolio managers or investment committee members have been disclosed.
How does Quantcore's investment process work?
The process begins with a multifactor quantitative screen of roughly 1,000 mid-to-large-cap US stocks, ranking them on valuation, quality, and momentum metrics. Kim then personally reviews the top- and bottom-ranked names to assess non-quantifiable risks, rejecting roughly 10% of model selections on qualitative grounds. The resulting portfolio holds 40–60 long names and 15–30 short names.
Is the strategy available through commingled funds or only managed accounts?
Quantcore offers both a Cayman-domiciled commingled fund and separate managed accounts. Larger institutions typically access the strategy through managed accounts, which provide daily liquidity and full position-level transparency.
Does Quantcore invest outside the United States?
No. The strategy is focused exclusively on US mid-to-large-cap equities. There are no known vehicles for international equities, emerging markets, or other asset classes.
What is Quantcore's known posture on co-investments alongside external GPs?
Quantcore does not operate co-investment vehicles or club-deal arrangements. As a quantitative equity manager, it deploys capital exclusively through its model-driven long/short portfolio, without participating in private, direct, or real-asset co-investments.
Has Hoon Kim announced any succession plan?
No succession plan has been announced. Kim remains the sole investment decision-maker, which concentrates key-person risk. Allocator diligence notes from public record confirm no deputy CIO or junior portfolio manager has been named as of mid-2024.
