About Advantage Capital Management

Advantage Capital Management is an investment firm founded in 1992 that specializes in community development finance and impact investing. The company has strategically positioned itself to generate competitive investment returns while fulfilling its mission of bringing businesses and jobs to markets that historically lack access to investment capital. Over its three decades of operation, Advantage Capital has leveraged $3.3 billion in capital raised in connection with federal New Markets Tax Credits and companion state tax credit incentive programs to invest approximately $4.2 billion in more than 900 small businesses across 39 states and the District of Columbia, collectively supporting the creation of 67,900 jobs.

In 2015, the company expanded its syndication platform into the affordable housing space, recognizing the interconnected nature of community development and housing stability. This strategic expansion was followed in 2016 by the launch of Advantage Capital’s renewable energy business line, which has since experienced rapid growth. The renewable energy division represents the company’s commitment to addressing climate change and sustainability while maintaining its core mission of generating returns and creating economic opportunities in underserved markets.

Advantage Capital maintains multiple office locations including facilities in New York, Saint Louis, and New Orleans, allowing the company to serve diverse geographic markets and maintain strong local relationships with developers, investors, and government agencies. The firm operates with a focus on building sustainable businesses and projects that create lasting economic impact.
