One good example of Cuban investing is the Canadian based publically traded company Sherritt International has invested over US$ 700m in mostly oil exploration & natural gas in Cuba. Interest has increased recently in exploring the Cuban Oil with companies from Spain (Repsol YPF), India (OLV), Malaysia (Petronas) Norway (Norsk-Hydro) and Sherritt now holding 16 Cuban blocks.
Another example of Cuban Investments is the tourism property development company Leisure Canada out of Vancouver & YM Biosiences led by Chairman David Allan, former Governor of the TSE.
In  Cuba there is a massive need for project and infrastructural debt financing. This is a major strategic area for attracting foreign investment. The Cuban Central bank will facilitate visits from interested parties.
Foreign investors have operating contracts to manage approx 65% of total 4 & 5 star hotel rooms in Cuba and  they are also involved in the building and refurbishment of the hotels they subsequently manage, generally making upfront payments to cover at least part of these expenses.
Other foreign involvement in the sector includes many small investors & representation agents and representatives who are based in Cuba as well as the major international investmetn groups that have been waiting on the sidelines untill the United States Embargo is finally removed. Thus this abnormal political relationship has created a vacum that allows the smaller risk tolerant investor to get in before the major intrnational investment proffessionals.
For the movers & shakers of the investment world who like to be on the cutting edge of new and excitting investment opportunities, then Cuba is the place for you. Just be careful not to fall for the most dangerous of all Cuban Investments, the smooth Cuban rum, beatiful Cuban women & fine Cuban cigars.
