Overview
Gamut is a New York-based contrarian and value-oriented investor focused on complex
situations in the middle market. Jordan Zaken and Stan Parker (the “Founders”) formed
Gamut in May 2015 and are the principal owners of the firm.
Gamut provides advisory services to private investment fund structures (collectively, the
“Funds”), which seek to make investments in complex situations across capital structures
and in a range of industries including: agriculture, chemicals, consumer, distribution,
energy, financial services, industrials, mining, power, technology, media, telecom and
transportation. Gamut has formed the entities comprising the Funds as Cayman Islands
exempted limited partnerships, of which affiliates of Gamut are the general partners (the
“General Partner”). Gamut has discretionary investment authority over the assets of the
Funds. As further described in the Funds’ offering documents, the Funds may be structured
to include one or more parallel vehicles and other investment
holding structures where
deemed appropriate by Gamut and/or the General Partner to facilitate the investment
objectives of any such Fund and its investors. In addition, Gamut currently provides advice
to “co-investment vehicles” that are structured to facilitate investments by third-party co-
investors who invest in private securities transactions alongside the Funds (“Co-Investment
Vehicles”).
Because Gamut’s advisory business is currently limited to providing advice to the Funds
in accordance with the governing documents of the Funds (and, in some cases, to Co-
Investment Vehicles), Gamut does not tailor its advisory services to the individual needs
of investors in the Funds, nor can investors impose restrictions on investing in certain
securities or types of securities.
As of December 31, 2023, Gamut had regulatory assets under management of
approximately $3.58 billion. Once called, the client assets will be managed on a
discretionary basis.
