원칙적으로는 원금보장이 불가능합니다. 투자이민 첫번째 조건이 Investment at Risk즉 위험부담이 없는 투자는 투자로 인정하지 않습니다.
그러나 최근 투자이민(EB-5)의 발전과 더불어 이민국으로 부터 새로운 답변을 받아냈습니다. 즉 제삼자의 보장을 통한 투자는 합법투자로 인정을 받을 수 있다는 결론으로 이는 투자이민의 상당한 진보를 초래하리라고 믿습니다.
원문은 다음과 같습니다.
Question: Can an EB-5 investor use funds unrelated to the EB-5 investment to purchase insurance from a third party (e.g., Lloyd’s of London) in which insurance proceeds would be paid to the investor if the commercial enterprise fails to repay the investor? Assume the third party is unrelated to the commercial enterprise or a regional center.
Response: Yes, as long as the alien investor’s capital is “at risk”, and the indemnity policy does not constitute a redemption agreement or a guaranteed buy-back arrangement for the alien investor’s investment in the commercial enterprise. A determination as to whether a specific indemnity policy is contrary to the statutory and regulatory requirements has to be made on a case-by-case basis.
