<p>Ricky,</p>
<p>With respect Sir this is not the answer. At the moment the GBP (British Pound) is well down on exchange rates just a month ago. So if a British Entrepreneur were looking for funding then he would require more US $ per pound and conversely in investing at this time in to a GBP project, the investor would expect to make an enlarged short term return on his investment and probably even a better return in terms of US$ over the longer term.</p>

<p>This is all part and parcel of making an investment. I wonder just how much George Soros has made over the last few weeks just by his machinations in the exchange rate market?? Good luck to the man. He knew or guessed what was coming and acted according to his instinct.</p>
<p>I do agree however that certain countries should be looked at very very carefully when looking for an investor. For myself- Irrespective of country - If someone sends you an email offering money - be ware!! If someone offers an investment with interest lows below the norm - be very aware!! International Due Diligence can be time consuming but that time is worth spending whichever side of the invest,ment coin you happen to live on.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Good Luck</p>

<p>Admin,</p>

<p>I regret Sirs but your summary is wrong. I have within the last two weeks tried to raise funds through your web sites. In both cases the 'Funders' were US based and in both cases I regret to say that they did not meet even the most basic of standards and further investigation (given location - v - IP Address and checks through other web sites) leads me to believe that these are Scam Merchants seeking banking and personal details only!</p>

<p>Strictly speaking brokers and lenders are required to conduct due diligence dealing with foreign companies, business and investors, as per the Patriot act. Bankers are also required to know their clients. This all takes time and most mortgage brokers don't invest in the resources or time to evaluate potential clients or companies.

<p>I agree that it should be US only!!!!!!!!! International companies or individuals would be difficult or impossible to do Due Diligence on and for International monies, there is a VAT (Value Added Tax) fee that has to be paid to the banks before they will supposedly deposit funds into your bank accounts. That would, also, open individuals or their companies up to scrutiny or audits by the IRS. Additionally, some of these banks are tied to countries that are US enemies, i.e., Iran and…</p>

I, for one, do not wish to profit from any country that does not have the US' best interest at heart.</p>
<p>Admin, I just saw this post, so I didn't realize you have already made a decision on this, which I'm glad you made. FYI, there are still international scammers on our site, unfortunately. </p>

<p>Personally, I feel you have made a poor decision. I feel lucky though that I am already a member, a citizen of the United States living in Panama and soon may become an agent for an investor in Saudi Arabia that does commercial transactions throughout the world. By you limiting future membership to USA and Canada companies only I will have fewer competitors on this website.</p>
