Information about USAdvisors

We are an independent firm of FINRA Registered Investment Analysts that evaluate each project carefully.  We are not paid by the Centers to promote their projects, but work for our clients who are the investors.  Our goal is to make sure that you get the best financial information possible to make an appropriate investment decision.  We dedicate our time to collecting and analyzing EB-5 project information so that you have all of the essential facts needed to understand each project's risks. 

USAdvisors.org is the source for news , projects and information about EB-5 Regional Centers and their investment projects. We are analysts, economists, accountants, statisticians and mathematicians that produce EB-5 Regional Center project comparative analysis reports for foreign national investors based on topics covering job creation methodology, the strategic plan, management, risk factors, risk mitigation, safety, return, exit strategy, escrow and industry overview among many others.  We have developed an approach to quantitatively assess the risks involved with the two key questions of the EB-5 project investment decision:
1. What is the probability that the jobs will be created within the time allotted and that those jobs will be acceptable to USCIS / CSC? 

2. What is the probability that principal will be returned at term?  Is the exit strategy clearly defined and achievable?
This empirical analysis provides the foreign national investor with the information they need from an independent, professional resource that will help guide them to making the best possible investment decision for them and their family.
