Investors choose municipal bonds for infrastructure development with a 2-year capital redeployment period.
Regional Center operator CanAm Enterprises announced the successful implementation of its EB-5 capital redeployment policy in the second quarter of 2019. CanAm investors are required to redeploy capital into a sector compliant with USCIS regulations until they file their I-829 petition.
Tom Rosenfeld, President and CEO of CanAm Enterprises, stated that the majority of CanAm investors redeploy capital with a relatively short timeframe of two years or less, opting for municipal bonds to support infrastructure development.
“CanAm always puts investors first, and we apply this philosophy to our redeployment approach. The company offers reinvestment options that comply with USCIS requirements and preserve capital for our clients,” said Tom Rosenfeld.
As a leading Regional Center, CanAm has developed an EB-5 redeployment platform focused on serving the specific financial and immigration needs and goals of each client. CanAm recognizes that every investor has different objectives regarding redeployment timeframes, expected returns, and risk tolerance. The decision to redeploy EB-5 capital must be made by the investor themselves.
Currently, CanAm supports redeployment through various options, including municipal bonds for infrastructure-related spending, mezzanine loans for qualified real estate developers, and long-term preferred equity investments in real estate projects.
According to CanAm leadership, the company’s philosophy throughout nearly 30 years of operation has been to ensure that investors achieve their immigration goals and preserve their capital investments. “With over 15 years of funding EB-5 projects, we maintain EB-5 loan terms where investors always know their maturity dates upfront, without being locked into longer commitments or multi-year extensions with high risk,” the company leader stated.
CanAm Capital Management was established to advise on redeployment options tailored to the investor’s chosen goals. “CanAm always puts investors first, and we apply this philosophy to our redeployment approach. CanAm complies with USCIS requirements and preserves redeployed capital as much as possible,” Tom Rosenfeld affirmed.
