American Lending Center LLC (former name US Employment Development Lending Center)

American Lending Center (ALC)—formerly known as US Employment Development Lending Center (USEDLC)—became a USCIS-designated regional center in April 2010 with a geographic scope that includes the State of California in its entirety. This regional center’s investments cover the following industries: Construction, Hospitality, Health Services, Education, Manufacturing, Storage, and Other.

ALC is focused on “investor first.” ALC implements a low-risk EB-5 business model that involves U.S. federal government risk control and capital injection, a senior loan structure, and a third-party fund control and construction completion commitment to ensure job creation.

ALC’s California regional center is the first of 12 American Lending Center regional centers, which are approved for geographies in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Maryland, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Virginia, Washington, and the District of Columbia. ALC’s regional centers have a 100% I-526 approval rate and is one of the few regional centers to achieve I-829 approval and return of capital. In total, ALC’s regional centers have funded 70 projects in 19 states; created over 8,000 jobs; and provided over $350 million in financing to small- and medium-sized businesses. As of December 2017, ALC is the leading US Small Business Administration (SBA) 504 program non-bank lender and the only lender using EB-5 funds. ALC’s California office is also the only EB-5 regional center to hold both a California Finance Lenders license and a FINRA Investment Advisor license, is a six-time nominee of the esteemed EB-5 Industry Achievement Awards, and is the official EB-5 investment partner of the City of San Diego. ALC is 100% SEC compliant.
