Illinois Business Review

AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Business & Finance: Wintrust reported record net income, while Illinois received a failing grade for fiscal health, raising concerns about future tax burdens. Commercial Real Estate: Zara founder Amancio Ortega bought a Chicago office tower for $550 million; Michelin North America purchased a 2-million-square-foot Illinois industrial facility for $151 million. Manufacturing & Investment: Italy-based Aermec plans manufacturing operations in DeKalb County, and stacked state tax credits could nearly erase the $3 million cost of a commercial battery. Energy Costs: Ameren added $10 million to customer-assistance programs, as Illinois regulators approved an $81 million Nicor Gas rate increase.
