Celebrating the CDFI Fund’s 25th Anniversary

The CDFI Fund was authorized by Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994. The act created a new agency providing funding to individual CDFIs and their partners through a competitive application process. Several years later, the New Markets Tax Credit was authorized as part of the Community Renewal Tax Relief Act of 2000.

Today, the CDFI Fund manages a half dozen programs. CDFI Fund awardees and allocatees deliver over $10 billion dollars of annual community development activity benefiting low-income communities and families.
