Description

New York City Economic Development Corporation (“NYCEDC”) is exploring potential solutions to address the obstacles nonprofit organizations face when pursuing real property acquisition projects utilizing City capital funding. To that end, the objective of this RFEI is to determine if the procurement of a fund manager (“Fund Manager”) could be one such solution to assist nonprofit organizations. The Fund Manager would offer (1) below-market interest rate bridge loans for acquisition financing related to CapGrants projects managed by NYCEDC and (2) support nonprofit organizations with navigating the required environmental review process.

NYCEDC does not plan to issue an award from this RFEI. This RFEI is intended to provide respondents with relevant information as well as questions to better understand market interest and how a potential Fund Manager could operate. NYCEDC anticipates that the responses to this RFEI will help inform a potential RFP for a Fund Manager.

It is the policy of NYCEDC to comply with all federal, state and City laws and regulations which prohibit unlawful discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, age, disability, marital status and other protected category and to take affirmative action in working with contracting parties to ensure certified Minority and Women-owned Business Enterprises (“M/WBEs”) share in the economic opportunities generated by NYCEDC’s projects and initiatives.

Companies who have been certified with the New York City Department of Small Business Services as M/WBEs are strongly encouraged to apply.
