Re: Ultimus Managers Trust (the “Registrant”)
File Nos. 333-180308; 811-22680
Dear Mr. Manion:
In a telephone conversation with me on February 2,
2024, you communicated the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission staff’s (the “Staff”) comment on the Registrant’s
Form N-CSRS filed on July 31, 2023 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, on behalf of its series the Q3 All-Season Systematic
Opportunities Fund and the Q3 All Season Tactical Fund (each, a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”). A summary of
the Staff’s comment, along with the Registrant’s response, is set forth below.
Comment 1. While the Form N-CSRS filing
for the Funds included an exhibit disclosing the change in the Funds’ Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm from BBD LLP
(“BBD”) to Cohen & Company, Ltd. (“Cohen”) following Cohen’s acquisition of BBD’s Investment Management
Group, it did not include as an exhibit BBD’s agreement with the statements concerning its firm being made by the Trust pursuant
to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K (the “BBD Exhibit”). The Form N-CSRS for the Funds needs to be amended and re-filed to include
the BBD Exhibit.
Response. The
Registrant acknowledges the Staff’s comment and will re-file the Form N-CSRS to include the BBD Exhibit for the Funds. The Registrant
will also amend and re-file the Form N-CSR, or Form NCRS, as applicable, for the series of the Registrant noted in Schedule A to this
response, to include the BBD Exhibit.

to the Staff’s comment. Please call the undersigned at 513-577-1693 if you wish to discuss this correspondence further.
