Idaho Business Review forum: Experts discuss Opportunity Zone investment

For those willing to invest patient capital into projects in areas primed for redevelopment, an Opportunity Zone might be the right option, said speakers at a Sept. 24 Idaho Business Review Experts Forum.

The subject of Opportunity Zones – 28 census tracts in Idaho are designated as such – was also discussed by panelists on May 20 at the Eighth and Main building. That event, also hosted by the Idaho Business Review, attracted about 100 attendees who heard about long-term investment in low-income urban and rural communities through tax breaks, especially on the capital gains front, a concern for many high-net-worth individuals.
