Discover how high-net-worth investors use Lombard loans to finance golden visa programs while maintaining their investment portfolios and preserving wealth.
The EB-5 minimum is $800,000 for a targeted employment area and $1,050,000 for a standard investment, under the Reform and Integrity Act of 2022. For an investor holding appreciated securities, how that capital is raised matters as much as the amount.
