Candide Group supports families, foundations, and other investors who want to flow their money to social justice-focused companies, funds, and vital organizations building a new economy. Candide Group is a Registered Investment Advisor that was founded by Aner Ben-Ami and Morgan Simon. The team has collectively deployed 100 investments totaling more than $200M in companies and funds over CG's first five years. Our name, Candide Group, is inspired by the classic French novel, written by Voltaire. Candide is the story of a young man who travels the world and is confronted with overwhelming suffering and injustice. He ultimately returns home and overcomes his powerlessness and despair with a call to concrete, immediate action. The final, famous line of the book is: we must cultivate our garden. As impact investors, like the character Candide, we struggle every day to understand the nature of good and evil. We prioritize taking action as we attempt to plant the seeds of justice by influencing and organizing capital, alongside others who are working to grow a new economy from the ground up.
