Key Messages
- Momentus Capital deployed $375 million supporting communities nationwide to thrive.
- This capital, combined with essential technical assistance, helped create more than 1,600 jobs and sustain an additional 3,600.

As we reflect on the past year, I am filled with deep gratitude for our investors, partners, and borrowers who contributed not only to Momentus Capital’s success, but also to the meaningful impact we’ve seen in the communities we serve. This reflection is especially important given how challenging 2025 was for many, as communities across the country navigated significant economic, social, and public policy headwinds.
Despite these challenges, we witnessed remarkable resilience. Momentus Capital remained steadfast in our mission — standing alongside impacted borrowers, providing critical technical assistance, and deploying capital to those who needed it most.
In 2025, we deployed approximately $375 million to support small businesses, schools, health centers, affordable housing developments, food co-ops, and more. This deployment of capital, combined with essential technical assistance, helped create more than 1,600 jobs and sustain an additional 3,600. None of this would have been possible without the strong partnerships we’ve built across government, private, and philanthropic sectors.
I’d like to highlight just a few examples of these impactful partnerships from 2025:
- New Markets Tax Credit Award: Momentus Capital received an $85 million New Markets Tax Credit Award from the U.S. Treasury. This award reflects the long-standing trust between Momentus Capital and federal agencies, as well as continued bipartisan support from Members of Congress. The award will help finance essential projects in health care, education, and other critical community services.
- Partnering with Small Business Advocates: Momentus Capital deepened its commitment to small businesses by increasing collaboration and advocacy efforts with small business advocates, such as the Mission Lenders Working Group (MLWG) and National Association of Development Companies (NADCO). Through these partnerships, Momentus Capital has supported policy development and educational engagement with Members of Congress with the goal of bringing greater awareness to key small business programs that create greater access to capital in the communities we serve.
- CDFI Bond Offering: Through Momentus Securities, we helped structure one of the largest bond offerings ever completed by a CDFI. Alongside Mesirow Financial, Momentus Securities* supported Capital Impact Partners in issuing $122.75 million in taxable bonds in 2025, rated A+ by S&P Global. This transaction strengthened our liquidity and balance-sheet flexibility, enabling us to expand lending and deepen community impact nationwide.
- Expanding Support for Emerging Real Estate Developers: We partnered with JPMorgan Chase, Amazon, Wells Fargo, and the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation to expand support for our real estate developer training programs to ensure they have the skills they need to participate in their community’s growth and revitalization efforts.
Our commitment to building generational wealth and resilient local economies remains unwavering and is a reflection of our belief in people-driven change. We are equally committed to supporting our employees and fostering opportunities for growth. I am proud to share that in 2025, Momentus Capital was named the #1 Large Nonprofit to Work For by The NonProfit Times. This recognition is a testament to our culture, our values, and our belief that our people are our greatest strength.
As we look ahead, we begin 2026 energized and ready to meet the challenges before us — and we do so with our new logos. These refreshed visuals reflect a unified identity and underscore how our organizations work together to provide a continuum of financial, knowledge, and social capital.
There is much more work to be done, and I look forward to continuing this journey with you as we make 2026 another impactful year. Thank you again for all that you do.
