CLIENT SUCCESS STORIES

Why go at it alone?

Time is money. And your time as an executive is extremely valuable. Hiring Standard Advisors as your tax incentive advisor removes the stress of researching, applying, and managing multiple tax incentive programs available through on the local, state, and federal levels.

The professionals at Standard Advisors Group, led by Anthony Manetta, the former CEO/Executive Director of the Suffolk County Industrial Development Agency have unrivaled experience on both sides of tax incentive transactions. 

Anthony structured dozens of tax incentives projects throughout New York State in the private and public sector. Due to the tax incentive process these projects generated over $1 billion of acquisition and development costs, created and retained thousands of Long Island jobs, and generated Billions in economic impact over the life of the projects.
