Over the past two decades, the United States has provided assistance and support for sub-Saharan Africa’s efforts to transform its economic and trade relationships, centered around the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA). First enacted into law on May 18, 2000, AGOA was designed to significantly enhance designated sub-Saharan African countries’ market access to the United States by providing duty-free treatment for specific import categories. The legislation’s primary goal was to promote economic growth through good governance and free markets. To qualify and remain eligible for AGOA, countries were expected to demonstrate progress toward market liberalization and to improve the rule of law, human rights protections, and core labor standards. More than 20 years later, AGOA continues to provide preferential treatment to 44 countries in the region, spanning over 6,500 tariff lines. Since May 2000, AGOA has been amended four times, mostly to clarify preferential treatment terms, technical standards, and sunset deadlines. The act was initially designed to be valid for eight years, expiring at the end of September 2007. In July 2004, however, President George W. Bush signed the AGOA Acceleration Act, extending it to 2015. Toward the end of his second term, in June 2015 President Barack Obama extended its validity by signing the Trade Preferences Extension Act, under which AGOA is set to expire in 2025.
The global political and economic landscape has changed profoundly since AGOA was enacted in 2000, even before the Covid-19 pandemic created new disruptions and accelerated several ongoing changes. The mobile telephony revolution has created new opportunities for millions to participate in the digital sphere, use mobile banking and payments systems, and receive commercial, educational, and medical services via the internet. Even as the sub-Saharan African region’s middle class continues to grow, it is also set to experience a youth population boom in the next three decades—which, under the right conditions, could pay a demographic dividend and avert a social crisis.
Meanwhile, the United States has also entered an era of great-power competition with China. With China’s influence in sub-Saharan Africa rising significantly, this competition is also playing out through the region’s political and economic institutions. Considering these opportunities and challenges, leaders in Washington (and their constituents across the United States) ought to look at Africa as a prospect for deepening commercial partnerships, not as a continent that needs to be “saved” through foreign assistance.
What industry should I make my EB-5 investment in?
In prior years, real estate projects were favored EB-5 investments because jobs were modeled by an economist to be created so long as the full budget in the business plan was spent. As real estate projects rarely come-in significantly under budget, this simplified job counts considerably and lowered the job-creation risk. Thus, big real estate projects in marquee locations were deemed to be most attractive as they were seen as “safer” for job creation.
However, since the enactment of the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022, and the new EB-5 program rules for Targeted Employment Areas (TEAs), many of these big-city projects no longer qualify at the lower investment level. Thus, real estate may not be attractive for an EB-5 project choice as it once was.
As many investors are motivated to pursue a TEA project for lower investment amounts, visa set-asides and premium processing for rural investments, they should understand that TEA investment projects, especially those in rural locations, can encompass a wide variety of industries.
Many new commercial enterprises are no longer location dependent, thus making them easier to qualify for TEA designation. Contemporary EB-5 projects can be in various industries including manufacturing, health care, call centers, technology businesses, and many others.
Unless an investor is comfortable investing $1,050,000 million in a non-TEA project, he or she should be open to a variety of project types and locations.
How do I make the EB-5 investment?
To make the investment, investors will sign a subscription agreement: a request to join a partnership or a limited-liability company. The Manager or General Partner will then accept the investor, who will then wire their investment funds to an escrow account controlled by an appointed escrow agent.
