Education Fund of America Launches "Seven C's of EB-5 Investing" Program

GREEN VALLEY, AZ, August 15, 2012 (Press-News.org) The U.S. EB-5 program helps foreign nationals obtain a Green Card if their investment in a U. S. business creates 10 American jobs. Foreign nationals have, since 2003, invested over $3.1 billion of foreign capital in the U.S. economy, creating well over 65,000 jobs for U.S. workers - all at no cost to the U.S. taxpayer.

Until now EB-5 investors have not had a reliable investment framework to determine the business risks of their investment. Today's launch of The Seven C's of EB-5 Investing methodology and the EB-5 Project Scoring Index by Education Fund of America (EFA) is the culmination of over 30 years of related financing experience, created by Co-Founder and Managing Partner of EFA, Greg Wing.

"The Seven C's of EB-5 Investing methodology helps foreign nationals seeking a Green Card to determine the optimal EB-5 business to invest in," says Managing Partner Greg Wing. "For decades banking and investment professionals have used the Five C's of Credit Analysis to guide their business lending decisions. To meet the specific EB-5 program requirements, we expanded the Five C's to Seven C's."

Greg discovered the need for a reliable business assessment methodology while meeting with EB-5 investors in China. They asked if there was some better guidance available to assess investment risk and project selection. A free educational webinar and White Paper on the Seven C's that addresses those needs is now available.

"We believe that applying the Seven's C's for EB-5 project selection will significantly improve the probability that investors will secure their Green Card and get their investment returned." Greg concluded.

In addition to helping foreign nationals from China, India and other countries assess EB-5 risk, EFA finances public charter schools - that inspire children to greatness and move them from being indifferent to inspired.
