THE NEW MARKETS TAX CREDIT PROGRAM

Pacesetter CDE, Inc. is a mission-driven Community Development Entity (CDE) certified by the U.S. Treasury’s CDFI Fund. Since 2008, we’ve specialized in providing New Markets Tax Credit (NMTC) financing projects that drive meaningful changes in underserved communities.

With over $211 million in Qualified Low-Income Community Investments (QLICIs) deployed across 28 transactions in 11 states, our track record speaks to both reach and reliability. We partner with nonprofits, community facilities, healthcare providers, and manufacturers to finance job-creating and service-expanding projects—particularly in rural, non-metropolitan, and deeply distressed areas.

Our experienced leadership team has successfully raised capital from major institutional investors and navigated multiple rounds. We’re known for closing complex deals, delivering flexible debt structures, and providing hands-on support from initial term sheet through post-closing compliance.

We don’t just invest in projects—we help bring them across the finish line.
