Every level of government offers a range of financial assistance programs that are closely tied to public policy. These may include incentives for job creation, tax credits for research and development and job training, venture capital loans, interest free loans, cost sharing for export market development and a wide range of other programs.
RSM Richter's government assistance group tracks these programs, and helps clients understand the often complex options that are available to them. We can help clients choose the right program and then offer assistance in preparing the necessary documentation and business plans.
Timing is crucial. Almost without exception, loans, tax credits and other government assistance programs are rarely extended to projects that are in progress or completed. It is wise to examine the options before embarking on investments in the following areas:
- equipment and machinery
- building acquisition or renovation
- technology upgrades
- training or recruiting
- market expansion
- export development
- new project development
Our goal is to help organizations qualify for, and obtain the maximum value from, relevant government assistance programs
