Manatt is pleased to sponsor the New Markets Tax Credit Conference taking place October 18-19, 2012, at The Roosevelt in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Join investors, lenders, attorneys, and executive decision makers for this two-day conference on affordable housing, community development, and renewable energy. Industry leaders will conduct panels discussing project development strategies, lessons learned from the economic crisis, and green initiatives.

On Wednesday, October 17, Neil Faden will be a speaker on the Pre-Conference Workshop: Beyond the Basics - Running the Numbers. This half day course will focus on "running the numbers" for a series of transactions and the nuances of the NMTC program that require careful structuring consideration.  The panelists, experts that have structured many transactions, will help you understand how the numbers work in a NMTC transaction, including addressing issues such as non-qualified financial property, redemption, the substantially-all test, and exit strategies.  The topics are geared toward those that have attended the NMTC Basics course or have a general understanding of the NMTC program.
