Since 2004, almost the inception of the NMTC program, PeaksCo and its Managing Director, David Cohan, have helped secure and close on more than $1 billion in NMTC-enhanced project financings.
Through the 2024-2025 awards cycle, Congress and the U.S. Treasury have authorized more than $81 billion in NMTC tax credit capacity, helping to leverage more than $585 billion in capital for businesses, real estate projects, and community services in economically distressed rural and urban communities. The efficacy of the NMTC program has been proven with this independently verified ratio of more than $8 of private capital being generated for every $1 invested through the NMTC program.
