Border Communities Capital Corporation Receives New Markets Tax Credit Allocation of $45M
Federal Tax Credit Helps to fill Project Financing gaps by Enabling Investors to Make Larger Investments in Border Communities
Investors receive a tax credit against their federal income tax in exchange for making equity investments in Community Development Entities (“CDE”), and Border CDE is a CDE. Through the end of 2022, award recipients deployed more than $62.9 billion in investments in low-income communities and businesses, helping to create or retain more than 857,000 jobs and construct or rehabilitate nearly 239 million square feet of commercial real estate.
Border CDE has had a stellar 22-year history. To date, Border CDE has received $240 million in NMTC allocation including an award of $45 million in the most recent round. The new $45 million NMTC allocation will be used to finance high impact projects located in severely distressed neighborhoods designed to benefit low-income persons and low-income residents.
“The heart and soul of both Border Communities Capital Company and Chelsea Investment Corporation, is having a greater positive impact on improving the lives of underserved communities, including low-income families, farmworkers, veterans, and seniors,” said Jim Schmid, Founder and Managing Member of BCCC. “Making these critical investments, especially in U.S. border communities, is not only an investment in local economies, but an investment in the lives of everyday, hardworking people.”
Border CDE has financed projects in a variety of industries including healthcare, education, childcare, manufacturing, hospitality, grocers, and more. The financed projects have created and/or retained approximately 2,760 direct permanent jobs and 3,600 construction jobs.
