1. Strengths of the project
- The CMB partnerships will be the lender of the government, private/public partnerships or any other private development units that meet CMB’s requirements. These units are responsible for returning the loan.
- Group 63’s act of combining their capital with public and private capital will create enormous amount of investment capital which will create greater numbers of job than USCIS’s requirement.
- Transparency is a vital feature that all parties expect, and this feature is ensured to be with all EB-5 CMB partnerships.
- Group 63 loan is processed with an associated unit of a stable company in the U.S., and this loan will be ensured partially by sales commitment from the Project.
- Group 63’s Development Zone is located in the areas having high unemployment rate and therefore meets TEA standard, as requested by USCIS to reduce the investment capital.
