We know opportunity. We know Arkansas.

Deepening value and expanding opportunities in America’s Heartland.

About Us

The Catalytic Fund is Arkansas’ only statewide investment platform that offers a diversified real asset portfolio that capitalizes on our local knowledge and best in class developer partners to drive execution.

Our experience with structuring private equity and real estate investments is unique in Arkansas and this knowledge produces strong financial returns with an emphasis on risk management in a state filled with often overlooked but solid investment opportunities. As national markets begin to tighten, Arkansas provides a blue ocean of opportunity and we provide a first-mover advantage.

Our multi-disciplinary team has an extensive background in private equity, fund management, property development, hospitality and urban planning. In addition, we leverage a robust national network for a rigorous underwriting and due diligence process.

Catalytic offers a profoundly unique investment opportunity.

The Program

Opportunity Zones

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act created a new section of the Tax Code (26 U.S. Code § 1400Z) that provides tax incentives for investments in targeted areas in the United States through investment vehicles called Opportunity Funds.

By investing into an Opportunity Fund, investors can not only defer and reduce their existing capital gains tax liability, but also eliminate future capital gains tax on returns earned from the Opportunity Fund.

Building Great Places

Our portfolio will include both adaptive reuse and new build multi-family residential, office, hotel, industrial and mixed-use buildings, leveraging our knowledge of the communities we invest in and the power of the federal Opportunity Zone investment platform to support these investments.
