After the temporary closure of the investment immigration program in Hong Kong in 2015, more investors have turned their attention to U.S. investment immigration. The U.S. EB-5 investment immigration program has significant advantages, but it also involves investment risks. Currently, there are many U.S. investment immigration projects on the market with varying quality, which requires investors to carefully select projects with relatively low risk factors. At the same time, the EB-5 program is no longer the "patent" of small and medium-sized developers in the U.S.; in recent years, certain U.S. state governments with high credit ratings have also begun to use EB-5 financing to raise funds for public infrastructure projects such as roads and bridges.
The Pennsylvania Turnpike project, exclusively represented by the leading domestic investment immigration brand WorldWay Group, is a 100% U.S. state government project. It involves borrowing and repayment from the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (PTC), which is under the Pennsylvania government, to EB-5 investors' limited partnership. The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission is the department responsible for the construction, financing, and operation maintenance of toll highways within Pennsylvania, established in 1937. Its managed funds have exceeded $3.4 billion, and there have been no default events in its 77-year history.
The essence of a 100% government project like the Pennsylvania Turnpike project is that the U.S. government or government agency, as the borrower, assumes the legal responsibility for repaying the principal and interest of the EB-5 funds. Typically, the credit ratings of U.S. government borrowing institutions are verifiable. The borrower of the Pennsylvania Turnpike project—the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission—has a very high credit rating, with the three major international credit rating agencies, S&P, Moody's, and Fitch, rating its issued revenue bonds very highly at "A+", "A1", and "A+" levels.
The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission is the largest municipal bond issuer in Pennsylvania, aside from the Department of Finance, and does not require authorization from the legislature or the governor. The PTC can independently decide to raise toll prices. Compared to other toll highways, the advantages of the Pennsylvania Turnpike project are very evident, and its strong debt repayment capability provides great confidence in the future recovery of EB-5 investments.
With the advantages of the borrower—the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission's 100% government background and A+ credit rating—combined with the fact that this project has already received pre-approval from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, the first phase of the Pennsylvania Turnpike project sold out explosively in just two months. Currently, the second phase of the project is also experiencing rare buying frenzy. For more details, investors are encouraged to contact the WorldWay Group hotline at 400-138-2929.
