Chordata Capital is an anticapitalist wealth management firm and we support clients in redistributing rather than continuing to accumulate wealth. We move our client’s investments off of Wall Street and into community investments that center racial and economic justice.
Chordata Capital was founded by Tiffany Brown and Kate Poole in 2018. Tiffany and Kate first met in 2013 through Resource Generation, and reconnected in 2017 as fellows in the inaugural year of the Just Economy Institute Fellowship. They joyfully discovered the power of their partnership and their aligned vision for wealth redistribution and reparations. The founding of Chordata Capital is rooted in a commitment to their cross-class, multiracial partnership.
OUR VISION
We envision a world where we repair our connection to one another. We embody compassion, knowing our economic system isn’t working for anyone’s well-being. Through personal development and powerful relationships across difference, we understand how much we need each other.
We acknowledge the harm that wealth accumulation has done to individuals and communities. Bringing our financial and non-financial resources to the table, Chordata offers clients the opportunity to nurture an economy that works for everyone.
WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT
We have deep, ongoing relationships with leaders in the solidarity economy movement.
We each bring over a decade of work in movements for racial and economic justice, and use a social justice lens to evaluate financial vehicles.
We have extensive experience working with people with wealth to transform patterns around guilt and shame in service of mobilizing resources for our collective liberation.
We invest in communities, not in Wall Street. We facilitate direct investments into local economies that focus on racial, economic and gender justice.
We use an integrated capital approach, allowing clients to integrate their giving, investing, and activism to resource the communities and projects they love.
We prioritize a collective rather than individual approach, knowing that we’re stronger together.
