Since our founding in 1984, Kane, McKenna and Associates, Inc. (KMA) has been building solutions using a unique blend of traditional public finance and economic development finance skills for a variety of clients. These clients range from municipalities as small as Marseilles, Illinois to those as large as the City of Chicago and Naperville, as well as corporate clients.

Scope of Services

Because of the diverse demands of our clients, KMA provides a wide range of services that can be tailored to individual goals and needs. We deliver this unique combination of services in a manner that is appropriate to each client. Our services generally fall into two categories:

Evaluation of Tax Increment Finance (TIF) qualification
Development of implementation plans for redevelopment areas

Capital Finance

Because KMA provides such a broad range of service offerings, we can "mix and match" services to help clients meet specific goals. KMA serves clients working on narrowly-scoped projects meeting a one-time need, or "cradle to grave" projects from conception to execution to financing and ongoing compliance.

Capital finance services are delivered through Kane, McKenna Capital, Inc. (KMC), a subsidiary of Kane, McKenna and Associates, Inc.
