Community Development Financial Institutions Fund June 25, 2024 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Department of the Treasury is issuing a revised interim rule implementing the Capital Magnet Fund (CMF), administered by the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund (CDFI Fund). This revised interim rule incorporates, among other things: revisions to certain definitions and CMF program requirements to improve the public's understanding and streamline the administration of CMF program requirements; revisions to project level requirements to better align CMF with other Federal housing programs; programmatic updates to address current business practices in the affordable housing industry; and consolidation of Economic Development Activities under a new section for a more comprehensive articulation of the criteria. This revised interim rule also reflects requirements set forth in a final rule, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, adopted by the Department of the Treasury on December 19, 2014 (hereafter referred to as the Uniform Administrative Requirements).
