It is hereby found and declared that a continuing need exists to maintain and develop the State‘s economy; that there are significant barriers in the capital markets inhibiting the issuance by the Authority of industrial revenue bonds, loans, and State Guarantees to assist in financing industrial projects, PACE Projects, farmers, and agribusiness in the State, particularly for smaller firms; and that the establishment of the Industrial Revenue Bond Insurance Fund and the exercise by the Authority of the powers granted in this Article will promote economic development by widening the market for the Authority’s revenue bonds, loans, PACE Projects, and State Guarantees.
