Opportunity Zones: New Guidance from the IRS
Posted by Chris Raddatz
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) released its second batch of guidance late last month regarding “opportunity zones.” Opportunity Zones were created as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 to incentivize investment in designated, economically distressed communities. The 169 pages of proposed regulations provide additional guidance to investors, fund managers and others seeking to bring equity capital to operating and real estate businesses within the OZs.
While many investors and fund managers have been active in investing in the OZs, the lack of regulatory guidance has somewhat limited the activity, especially as to operating businesses (versus real estate investment).
