Enhanced Community Development Receives New Markets Tax Credit Allocation
In a significant move towards economic revitalization, Enhanced Community Development, LLC, a subsidiary of Enhanced Capital Group, LLC, recently announced the receipt of a $65 million allocation from the New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) program, as awarded by the U.S. Treasury Department's Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) Fund. This award is part of the Treasury's broader initiative, which allocated a total of $10 billion in NMTC allocations across 142 Community Development Entities (CDEs) for the 2024–2025 cycle.
Since the inception of the NMTC program in 2000, its primary focus has been to leverage federal tax credits to spur private investment in economically distressed communities. The recent allocation boosts Enhanced Community Development's cumulative federal NMTC allocation to an impressive $560 million from eleven awards received since 2006.
Richard Montgomery, Managing Partner at Enhanced Capital, expressed gratitude for the recent funding, highlighting its pivotal role in facilitating private capital flows to projects that further essential community services, create job opportunities, and invigorate local economies. “This allocation expands our capacity to finance projects in both urban and rural communities nationwide,” he emphasized.
Historically, the NMTC program has demonstrated its effectiveness by generating approximately $8 of private investment for every $1 of federal tax credit, with a whopping total of $81 billion in tax credits awarded to date. By the end of fiscal year 2023, the program had been instrumental in creating or retaining over 888,200 jobs and facilitating over 268 million square feet of commercial real estate development.
Catherine Blume, Director at Enhanced Capital, further commented on the implications of this allocation, stating, “This allocation positions Enhanced Community Development to continue financing high-impact projects in both metropolitan and non-metropolitan areas.” The aim remains to support initiatives that enhance access to services, foster job creation, and underpin long-term economic resilience.
To date, Enhanced Community Development has successfully deployed more than $830 million in both federal and state NMTC investments across more than 140 projects nationwide. These projects include a diverse range of assets such as manufacturing facilities, healthcare providers, educational institutions, and community centers, all of which serve populations in low-income areas.
