Live Opportunity Zone Webinar

The Knowledge Group

June 24, 2019

Join us for this Knowledge Group Online CPE Opportunity Zones Webinar. Intended to spur job creation and economic development in distressed communities, the U.S. government has added Opportunity Zones to the tax code under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The investment vehicle used is a Qualified Opportunity Fund (QOF) which can be a corporation or partnership. Investing in O-Zones benefits investors through tax incentives such as tax deferment.

However, amidst the potential tax savings, the program comes with possible risks. As O-Zone investments gain momentum in 2019, investors and counsel should be well-versed with the regulatory and economic updates to ensure that opportunities are maximized and pitfalls are avoided.

Our panel of key thought leaders and practitioners will offer a discussion of the fundamentals as well as the latest and significant issues surrounding the O-Zone investment and its investment tool – the QOF. This LIVE Webcast aims to help you optimize the benefits of O-Zone investments while avoiding common risk issues.

The panel will also discuss, among other topics:

• Recent Updates and Developments
• IRS Regulations on QOF and O-Zones
• Challenges Encountered
• Practical Strategies to Maximize Benefits
