Bill Text

PAG LIN
  1  1    Section 1.  Section 15E.66, Code 2003, is amended by adding
  1  2 the following new subsection:
  1  3    NEW SUBSECTION.  8.  At such time that the Iowa capital
  1  4 investment corporation requests the issuance of tax credits
  1  5 with respect to an investment in the Iowa fund of funds and
  1  6 prior to issuing such tax credits, the board shall consider
  1  7 the terms of the investment and the terms of the proposed tax
  1  8 credit certificate and shall assess the level of risk that the
  1  9 tax credits will be redeemed and the likelihood that the
  1 10 investment will result in returns in excess of amounts payable
  1 11 to designated investors which may be reinvested in the Iowa
  1 12 fund of funds revolving fund as provided in section 15E.65.
  1 13 In making this determination, the board shall compare how
  1 14 alternative investment structures would affect the level of
  1 15 risk that the tax credits will be redeemed and the likelihood
  1 16 that the investment will cause excess returns to be generated
  1 17 in the Iowa fund of funds for reinvestment in the revolving
  1 18 fund.  The board may issue tax credits with respect to a
  1 19 particular investment in the Iowa fund of funds consistent
  1 20 with the provisions hereof if it determines that the Iowa
  1 21 capital investment corporation has structured the investments
  1 22 in the Iowa fund of funds in an appropriate manner to minimize
  1 23 the risk that the tax credits will be redeemed and to maximize
  1 24 the amount available to be reinvested in the Iowa fund of
  1 25 funds revolving fund.  A member of the board shall not incur
  1 26 any liability with respect to any decision to issue tax
  1 27 credits or to refuse to issue tax credits or with respect to
  1 28 the performance of the investments in the Iowa fund of funds.  
  1 29                           EXPLANATION
  1 30    This bill relates to the issuance of tax credit
  1 31 certificates and related tax credits to designated investors
  1 32 in the Iowa fund of funds.
  1 33    The bill provides criteria for the Iowa capital investment
  1 34 board to consider in determining whether to issue tax credits.
  1 35 The bill provides that the board shall consider the terms of
  2  1 the investment and the terms of the proposed tax credits and
  2  2 shall assess the level of risk that the tax credits will be
  2  3 redeemed and the likelihood that the investment will result in
  2  4 returns in excess of amounts payable to designated investors
  2  5 which may be reinvested in the Iowa fund of funds revolving
  2  6 fund.  The bill requires the board to compare how alternative
  2  7 investment structures would affect the level of risk that the
  2  8 tax credits will be redeemed and the likelihood that the
  2  9 investment will cause excess returns to be generated in the
  2 10 Iowa fund of funds for reinvestment in the revolving fund.
  2 11 The bill allows the board to issue tax credits if it
  2 12 determines that the Iowa capital investment corporation has
  2 13 structured the investments to minimize the risk that the tax
  2 14 credits will be redeemed and maximize the amount available to
  2 15 be reinvested in the Iowa fund of funds revolving fund.  The
  2 16 bill provides that the board members shall not incur liability
  2 17 for the issuance or refusal to issue tax credits or with
  2 18 respect to the performance of the investments.
