🇺🇸 United States · Investment

Foreign investment rules, incentives, investment promotion agencies, and restricted sectors.

Inward investment is promoted federally through SelectUSA; foreign investments that may affect national security are reviewed by CFIUS, an interagency committee chaired by the Treasury.

  • SelectUSA helps foreign investors navigate establishing or expanding operations in the US.
  • CFIUS can review — and in some cases block or unwind — foreign investments raising national-security concerns.
  • Most investment incentives are offered at the state and local level rather than federally.
