“It was a difficult year in the tax credit equity market – the program achieved a landmark legislative victory in 2025 tax legislation that resulted in a large expansion of the affordable housing tax credit,” Merchants Capital Executive Vice President Julie Sharp said. “Naturally, the supply-demand imbalance resulted in uncertainty in the market. Given these headwinds, I am extremely proud of our ability to continue to execute at a high level and provide solutions to our investor and developer clients.”
