Summary
WEDC may certify businesses as a “Qualified Wisconsin Business”. The designation allows investors with WI capital gains tax liability to both defer that tax liability and if an investment is maintained for a minimum of 5 years to exempt the asset from Wisconsin capital gains tax on exit of the investment. As of January 1, 2014, this program will be transferred to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue.
This program expands and improves on a program under Wis. Stat. 238.20 the “Qualified New Business Venture Capital Gains” program that allows for long term capital gains deferral. The intent is to promote the development of early-stage capital availability by providing an incentive to reinvest capital gains into Wisconsin business and for holding WI based investments long term.
