It is anticipated that the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s CDFI Fund will announce the 2018/2019 New Markets Tax Credits (“NMTC”) allocation awards in March 2019. At that time, the CDFI Fund will award some $3.5 billion of NMTC allocations to be deployed in deserving projects across the country. Deserving projects are those that result in the creation of jobs and/or production of goods or services which significantly impact economically distressed low income communities.
“The federal New Markets Tax Credit is a unique and flexible community development tool with a successful track record, attracting investment capital and boosting economic activity in low-income areas. In fact, the NMTC has leveraged an unprecedented level of investment to low-income communities—generating about $82 billion in total capital investment through public-private partnerships that created more than one million jobs.”
