  5. New Markets Tax Credits • NMTC allocations are awarded by the Community Development Financial Institutions (“CDFI Fund”) to Community Development Entities (CDE’s). The CDE’s will make loans and capital investments in businesses in underserved geographic areas. • Investors (such as local corporations, banks, insurance companies or individuals) invest cash in the entity that is awarded tax credits.
