On Dec. 11, Taft tax and project finance partners Richard E. Aderman and Kostas A. Poulakidas presented an overview of Qualified Opportunity Zone programs, a significant provision in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, awarding preferential tax benefits to certain private investments of capital gain into development projects located in certain low-income communities designated as “qualified opportunity zones.”

The program helped attendees gain perspectives on features relating to Qualified Opportunity Zones such as:

• Legal and Regulatory Aspects
