CNA Among Corporations Returning Tax Breaks to Chicago
Insurance company CNA Group is one of three Chicago firms returning $34 million in tax breaks to the city.
Also among the companies returning or not accepting special taxing district funds is CME Group, parent of the Chicago Board of Trade and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The exchanges will save millions of dollars a year due to a state income tax break passed by the Illinois Legislature.
CNA Group is returning $13.7 million in tax-increment financing money, and Bank of America is returning $5.4 million.
Officials of Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s administration tell the Chicago Tribune both companies fell short of the 2,700 or so jobs each was required to keep in exchange for the tax breaks, which helped them make building renovations.
