LIHTC - Equity Fund - 08/22/10 01:31 PM
In the past, the bank directly purchased LIHTCs. We received investment credit for: (1) the amount purchased during the current exam cycle, and (2) the book value of LIHTCs purchased in prior exam cycles.
The bank is now considering investing in an equity fund that purchases LIHTCs so that we can diversify risk. I want to ensure we'll receive the same amount of CD investment credit going thru the fund as we did for directly purchasing the LIHTCs.
Are my following conclusions correct?
1. Bank will receive CD investment credit if the fund invests in LIHTCs in the assessment area. If there aren't any viable LIHTCs in the AA, and the fund invests in LIHTCs in the broader regional or state wide area, the bank will receive CD investment credit.
2. The bank will receive investment credit for: (1) the amount purchased during the current exam cycle, and (2) the book value of the LIHTC purchased in prior exam cycles.
Thanks.
