More Than One Thousand and Four Hundred Investors Were Fully Repaid to Date

CanAm Enterprises LLC (“CanAm”) is pleased to announce that its 30th EB-5 Partnership Loan from the PIDC Regional Center has repaid on November 22nd, 2016. This marks the milestone of 1,423 investor-families fully repaid, further establishing CanAm as one of the leading sponsors of EB-5 investments.

The $45 million EB-5 loan helped finance the redevelopment of a former historic building to a boutique hotel located across the square of the Independent Bell of Philadelphia. An estimate of 1,387 new, permanent jobs were created as a result of the project’s completion. All of the 90 investors and their families have met the job-creating requirement and received residency status.

The EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program(“EB-5”) is administered by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). The Program provides qualified foreign investors with the opportunity to earn “conditional” or temporary two-year visas in return for investing $500,000 in businesses located in high unemployment areas that create or retain at least ten permanent full-time jobs for U.S. workers.

In 2003, New York-based CanAm Enterprises partnered with the Philadelphia’s PIDC to create the PIDC Regional Center, which has become one of the most successful EB-5 Regional Centers in the nation. Over the past ten years, PIDC Regional Center has raised $620.5 millions of foreign investment that has helped the economic growth in Philadelphia.

CanAm President and CEO Tom Rosenfeld, a Philadelphia native, started this business in Philadelphia following a highly successful similar program in Canada starting in 1987. “In partnership with PIDC, we do exhaustive research to find qualified projects for investment, and we work just as hard to ensure that our borrowers follow the job creation formula required by the EB-5 model,” Rosenfeld said. “We follow the law to the letter. We constantly monitor all of our projects to ensure that the job creation goals are being met, and we work with our investors and the federal government to keep them fully informed about the status of the Regional Center projects.”

“The program works,” said PIDC President, John Grady. “It has been invaluable as a resource for investment in Philadelphia projects. The partnership between CanAm and PIDC has succeeded in attracting hundreds of millions of dollars to the city, and we look forward to working together to bring even more investment to Philadelphia in the years to come.”

When the CanAm PIDC Regional Center received its designation, it was one of only a handful of active Regional Centers nationwide. Today, there are well over 1,200 designated Regional Centers, and CanAm has also successfully launched Regional Centers in Pennsylvania, Los Angeles, Hawaii, New York, Florida and Texas.

“Even as the Program has grown, the CanAm PIDC Regional Center remains one of the pioneers and most enduring success stories. It has been an amazing 13 years, and we are very proud to have been part of some of the most important projects in the Philadelphia region,” added Rosenfeld.
