Candor LLC is preparing the ground to launch Gfund: a vertically integrated development fund for investing in Trump Zones (TZs) and Allied Opportunity Zones (AOZs) with US-friendly investment, security, and rule of law.
Rebalancing global trade presents an urgent need for investment in re-shoring, nearshoring and friendshoring: bringing manufacturing to the US, to neighboring countries and to our allies around the world.
We are building a team and a pipeline of promising areas to invest.
Investment Thesis: Make the Willing Able.
We invest where there is an unmet need for security, legal, human resources, or physical infrastructure. By bringing these improvements, we can develop capital investments that dramatically increase the underlying value of land and labor in and around a zone. We negotiate a Regulatory Framework Agreement (RFA) with eGov services to protect the property rights of investors, entrepreneurs, and workers while delivering transformative political wins to sovereign political leaders and increased added value for an anchor tenant.
