A regional center is an entity (public or private) that administers EB-5 projects. A regional center promotes job creation, the raise of domestic capital, economic growth and regional productivity. Approximately 90 percent of investment in the EB-5 program is made through regional centers.
There are various benefits to becoming a regional center. Partnerships, governmental agencies and any existing commercial entity in the United States are examples of business models that may become EB-5 Regional Centers. Regional centers are able to fulfill less stringent job creation requirements; for example, a regional center may count indirect and induced fulltime jobs, as well as direct jobs, while a direct EB-5 investment must create 10 direct jobs.
Additionally, a regional center is an appealing way to raise low interest debt (and/or equity) for a business project and it is non-recourse (making it appealing to business owners and/or developers). EB-5 industry experts can help you with the requirements for regional center approval and the filing of the I-956 application. If you are a project owner or someone seeking assistance for participation in an EB-5 project, you can contact a regional center creator on EB5Investors.com.
