Description
Learn about the types of projects that may qualify for New Markets Tax Credit financing and why it is preferable to conventional options.In lowincome communities across the United States, the COVID19 pandemic has wreaked havoc in areas already suffering from longterm unemployment and lack of economic growth. The New Markets Tax Credit, codified in Section 45D of the Internal Revenue Code, was enacted with bipartisan support in 2001 and recently extended for an additional five years under the Consolidated Appropriations Act as a way to combat job loss and encourage investment in lowincome communities. This material will show how the use of the New Markets Tax Credit is especially appropriate in the current economic climate and will discuss how projects utilizing New Markets Tax Credits result in a subsidy to the borrower of approximately 20 or more.
