The Opportunity Zones program was established through the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in December 2017.

It is a community development tax incentive program for private investors.

The program is designed to drive long-term capital to rural and low-to-moderate income urban communities throughout the nation, and uses tax incentives to encourage private investment in impact funds.

Investors are eligible to receive certain tax benefits on unrealized capital gains reinvested in Opportunity Zones through pooled Opportunity Funds.
