Novogradac Conference to Prepare Attendees for $7 Billion New Markets Tax Credit Allocation Round
SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) September 23, 2016 -- To prepare for an unprecedented $7 billion new markets tax credit (NMTC) allocation round, community development practitioners will meet to share financing ideas and approaches at the Novogradac 2016 New Markets Tax Credit Fall Conference in New Orleans, Oct. 20-21. The Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) Fund announced in April that it would combine the NMTC allocation authorities of calendar years 2015 and 2016 into a single $7 billion allocation round, with awards expected to be announced in late 2016.
“We’re awaiting the largest allocation round in the history of the New Markets Tax Credit program,” said Brad Elphick, CPA, conference co-chairman and partner in Novogradac & Company LLP’s metro Atlanta, Ga., office. “Attendees of the Novogradac 2016 New Markets Tax Credit Conference will be able to use the valuable insights they learn at the conference to prepare for what’s sure to be a competitive and exciting 2017.”
Attendees can customize their conference experience by choosing panels tailored to their level of expertise. In addition to including discussions of the NMTC program’s future, the conference will feature panels on investing in underserved areas, using the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s loan guaranty with NMTC leverage loans and structuring NMTCs with historic tax credits. To complement attendees’ conference experience, two pre-conference workshops will be offered Wednesday, Oct. 19: NMTC 101: The Basics and Advanced NMTC Concepts. Pre-conference workshop registration is separate and optional. Additional fees apply.
