Summary: Housing Trust Silicon Valley, a nonprofit Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI), supports the proposed regulatory capital rule changes. They specifically urge regulators to lower the risk weighting for Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) properties to 20% (and no more than 50%) to better reflect their strong performance and encourage more investment in affordable housing.
Attached please find a comment letter urging regulators to lower risk ratings for properties using the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC). Thank you for your consideration.
