Title: CDFI Program and NMTC
Program Annual Report including CIIS.
OMB Number: 1559–0027.
Abstract: The mission is to expand
the capacity of financial institutions to
provide credit, capital and financial
services to underserved populations and
communities in the United States. The
CDFI Fund’s strategic goal is to improve
the economic conditions of underserved
communities by providing capital and
technical assistance to CDFIs, capital to
insured depository institutions, and
NMTC allocations to Community
Development Entities (CDEs), which
provide credit, capital, financial
services, and development services to
these markets. The CDFI Fund certifies
entities as CDFIs and/or CDEs.
Annual Reporting Requirements: The
Annual Report consists of quantitative
information at the institution and
transaction levels for CDFIs and CDEs
and is used to assess: (1) The awardee’s/
allocatee’s activities as detailed in its
application materials; (2) the awardee’s/
allocatee’s approved use of the
assistance; (3) the awardee’s/allocatee’s
financial condition; (4) the socioeconomic characteristics of awardee’s/
