CAHEC created CAHEC New Markets, LLC, to focus on utilizing our New Markets Tax Credit allocations to help finance community facility projects throughout the Southeast. We have been awarded a total of $220 million in allocations from the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s CDFI Fund.
The New Markets Tax Credits program is designed to stimulate economic and community development and job creation in low-income communities by attracting investment capital from the private sector. Taxpayers invest equity capital in qualified CDEs in exchange for a credit against their federal income taxes. In turn, CDEs are required to invest the proceeds in low-income communities, areas that traditionally have not attracted the attention of venture capitalists.
