Raiffeisen Capital Management

András Szálkai manages the Central and Eastern European equity fund, which was restructured in August 2023. The strategy focuses on listed equities across the CEE region. The firm's own commentary highlights Szálkai's active management during Hungary's election cycle and large-scale regional investment programs.

Distribution runs almost entirely through the Raiffeisen Banking Group's branch network in Austria. This captive architecture means the firm does not need to compete for shelf space on external platforms to the extent an independent manager would, but it also limits the firm's organic reach to the Raiffeisen footprint.

The Raiffeisen Defined Outcome 2029 is a UCITS fund that uses derivatives to create a structured payoff profile with a fixed 2029 maturity date. Close to maturity, the fund can shift predominantly into cash and short-dated deposits. The FMA approved the fund's prospectus, and its investment rules permit concentrated sovereign exposure exceeding 35% of fund assets.

The firm's product shelf is built on public-markets UCITS funds — mixed-asset portfolios, infrastructure equities, and CEE equities. There is no public evidence the firm operates a private-equity, venture-capital, or direct real-asset vehicle, though its infrastructure-equity fund holds listed infrastructure companies.

Neither. Raiffeisen Capital Management is a bank-owned asset manager, structured as a subsidiary of the Raiffeisen Banking Group. It manufactures and distributes mutual funds to retail and institutional clients rather than managing the capital of a single family.
