New Markets Tax Credits (NMTCs) provide essential benefits for driving economic growth and revitalization in underserved communities. By leveraging this impactful program, organizations can attract significant private sector investment through loans or equity, transforming community development projects and expanding access to jobs, facilities and services.

Additionally, NMTCs enhance the capacity of community development lenders, investors and financial service providers, creating a robust network that addresses the needs of low-income areas. With strategic allocation and comprehensive guidance, NMTCs empower businesses and nonprofits to achieve substantial community impact and sustainable growth.

On this episode of Cherry Bekaert’s Tax Services Podcast, Laurel Tinsley, Strategic Financing Services Leader, and David Altman, Project Finance Senior Manager, delve into the fundamentals of NMTCs and their profound influence on community revitalization. Together, they explore insightful examples of NMTC-driven projects and discuss how Cherry Bekaert's Strategic Financing Services team supports organizations in navigating the NMTC process. 

Discover how Cherry Bekaert combines strategic knowledge and a nationwide network to maximize the benefits of NMTCs for impactful community development.
