Connecting capital to communities that need it most — bridging the gap between federal programs and local impact through structured community development finance.

TransPecos Development Corp (TPDC) is a certified Community Development Entity (CDE) under the CDFI Fund of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. As an affiliate of TransPecos Banks SSB, TPDC leverages its $190 million NMTC allocation to deliver patient, flexible capital to projects that revitalize low-income and underserved communities.

Our focus spans rural healthcare infrastructure, tribal economic development, clean energy projects, and essential community services. We specialize in structuring complex, multi-party transactions that align federal incentives — including New Markets Tax Credits, SSBCI, BIA loan guarantees, and USDA programs — with the real needs of communities across Texas, Nevada, Oklahoma, Alabama, New Mexico, and tribal lands.

Every transaction is designed not just to close, but to create measurable, lasting community impact in areas that traditional capital markets underserve.
