QUALIFIED OPPORTUNITY ZONES
Providing significant tax benefits to investors while creating positive impact in local communities
________________________________________________
OZs connect private capital with economic growth
Opportunity zones were created as part of the Tax Cuts and Job Acts of 2017 to stimulate long-term private investments in low-income urban and rural communities nationwide.
By providing tax benefits to investors, opportunity zone fund investments promote economic growth in distressed areas. Investors benefit from tax-deferral and exclusion.

How are opportunity zones determined?
The governor of each state and five U.S. territories designated up to 25% of eligible census tracts as opportunity zones, resulting in nearly 9,000 active opportunity zones across the country.
