Havana, Cuba- International Investments in Havana Cuba and Varadero have failed to encourage more international. European, Canadian and American investment because Cuba red tape and Cuban bureaucracy is crippling Cuba's economic growth and its goal of sustainable development in danger unless massive investment and legal changes are made said international Cuban investors and foreign diplomats living in Havana Cuba. CALL CUBA NOW!

The island of Cuba is trying to rebuild market-oriented reforms from an old Soviet-style system that will potentially make Cuba an investors financial paradise to more Mutual fund investors however potential investors that have already invested in Cuba and been burned in the past by Cuban investment deception, changing legal investing laws and plain outright Cuban fraud say the Cubans have not yet put out much of a welcome incentive and rules to protect foreign investment in Cuba.

Cuba's National Statistics Office said this week that international investment in Cuba, Havana and Varadero by foreign investors and Cuban investment partners was 4.3 billion pesos in 2011, just 100 million pesos increase from the previous year. Cuba investors state that this investment amount is a 20% percent increase in Gross Domestic Product, which is highest in recent years, but far less that what Cuba real estate investment needs.

Cuba's head of the University of Havana's Center for the Study of the Cuban Economy, stated that Cuba's average investment is only 13 percent far below the 25% Cuban investments in recent years, compared with an average of 23 percent in the rest of Latin America and the Caribbean.

International Investors point that Cuba economy requires a much higher rate of foreign pension fund and mutual fund investments in hotels, homes, insurance. lawyers and companies that can go public as IPO with an Invest in Cuba focus. Every Cuban know that Cuba needs investment especially foreign investment that could elevate Cuba out of its longstanding financial difficulties and finally put Cuba on the path to financial freedom.

International investor experience demonstrates that poor economies have achieved significant economic growth and financial improvement of their infrastructure and standard of living due to higher investment rates of more than 30 percent with significant support of direct foreign investment in Cuba.

Cuban real estate and hotel investment economy grew only 2.7 percent last year and 2.4 percent in 2010, lagging well behind the rest of the Caribbean and Mexico. As soon as the American can visit Cuba these investment opportunities will automatically rise as the huge number of U.S. tourist travel to Havana, Varadero, Trinidad and the rest of Cuba.

INVEST IN CUBA IS HIGH RISK!

FOREIGN INVESTORS FRUSTRATED BY CUBA INVESTMENTS

Cuba's Foreign investment Strategy announced in 2012 spoke positively of attracting more international investors and Cuba wanted to increase foreign investment from international mutual funds and stock market pension fund investors. The Cuban's did a strategic review of the long Cuban investment approval process and came to the conclusion that special economic free trade and Investment zones like joint venture golf courses, Cuba Insurance, real estate, marinas and new manufacturing investments are being planned all over Cuba.

Cuba may want more foreign investment dollars but there have been more promises to change rather than actual investment changes that have many barriers to true foreign investment in Cuba.

Many other countries and their international insurance investment and mutual fund companies, America, Europe, China, Russia and Brazil to Singapore and various European Union members, have expressed desire to invest in Cuba despite the silly American U.S. trade embargo against Cuba.

Unfortunately the Cuban government is demanding at least a 51% majority interest in all joint ventures and is dragging its heels or obfuscating in negotiations. The main obstacle is that Cuba wants to maintaining its independence and sovereignty without any risk on their part without consideration to the Investors risk of loss of their investment which Cuba will eventually control.

Cubans have an historical problem with Communism, free enterprise and Cuban nationalism. Cuban investment organizations are simply not interested in minority shares so Cubans can say that no foreign company owns a piece of their island of Cuba. Many foreign investors complain the Cubans insisting on 51 percent ownership of all new Cuban Joint ventures so that Cuba keeps effective control of the entire business.

Cuban investments have been signed in important agreements many years ago with poor results blaming the Mutual fund investment delay on critical issues such as Cuba's two parallel currency exchange rates.

When international investors drill down into the fine details the Cuban investment funds become cloudier and hazier the deeper you dig. In the end one investor said it clearly " the Cubans are very nice people but when it comes to foreign investment, Mutual funds, Insurance, home mortgages and financial investments in Cuba the control of 100% of your money is in their hands with absolutely no possibility of recouping even one penny if your Cuban business investment runs into problems. The risk of Investing in Cuba is 100% against you from the start because the Cubans make some of the rules in your favor today only to change all the rules against you in the future when its time to start making a profit on your initial high risk Cuban investment.

Another Investor from America stated the slow Cuban government is decades away from turning its Cuban Investment plans into reality. Cubans have been trying to invest in new businesses in the promised special economic zones, only to be told to come back next year after the Cuban Investment law that was introduced by the best Cuban Lawyers was approved.

In short if you want high risk low reward investments then Cuba is your best bet today. However everything can change in an instant as soon as American president lifts the economic sanctions against Cuba. This would send Cuba investments in Home mortgages, Health care, Insurance, and real estate into the hottest investment market on the planet. Investing in Cuba should be done with a long term capital appreciation horizon like an retirement pension fund.

INVEST IN CUBA YES OR NO?

Many Cuban Health Resorts and international business executives in the Luxury Hotel Investment, Insurance, Mortgage, Lending and financing sector released a Cuba Investment statement outlining their recommendation to increasing investment and business ties with Cuba. The Cuban American investment group had concerns about Calling Cuba and investing in Cuba while the financial controls were not yet in place. They suggested that before American Mutual funds, Pension and Insurance funds start to place American investment dollars in Cuba they want the U.s. and Cuban governments to put in place Investment Guarantees and investing guidelines to ensure that Cuba offers investment security to all foreign investors.

The Cuban American Investment group said it was concerned regarding Fidel & Raul Castro deceptive campaign targeted at securing international financial mutual fund resources to extend its control over the Cuban people. This Cuba investment group of executives is made up of some of the biggest names in U.S. business, including PepsiCo, Dow Chemical, Bristol-Myers Squibb, American Express, General Mills along with luxury hotel brands Marriott, Holiday Inn, Radisson Resorts and Four Seasons Resorts to name a few.

Cuba Mutual fund investors want true economic reforms that will truly open up Cuba to international stock markets and many Insurance and pension funds. Fidel and Raul Castro have introduced non-systemic, heavily-taxed, revocable reforms with no financial and legal protection or investment return which has the Cuba Investment group concerned.
