The federal government's New Markets Tax Credit program will enable M&I to offer below-market interest rates and less expensive loans for the development of office, industrial, retail, residential, and community facilities in Wisconsin, Arizona, Florida, Indiana, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, and Missouri.
"M&I is pleased to have been awarded $40 million in New Markets Tax Credit," said Vincent Lyles, president, M&I Community Development Corporation. "Funding of this kind plays a critical role in our ability to assist individuals and businesses in low-income communities. Specifically, these funds will be used to promote job creation in markets served by M&I Bank."
In 2006, M&I was a recipient of a NMTC allocation and successfully deployed $75 million in tax credits in 2007 throughout M&I's markets. The NMTC 2007 deployment resulted in M&I underwriting 29 loans.
Created by Congress in 2000, NMTC is a federal tax program designed to help spur investment in businesses located in lower-income communities. Investors in the program's Community Development Entities will receive a credit against their federal income taxes over the seven-year period.
