It’s time to invest in America

Christopher Landau: President Trump is sending a clear message — it's time to invest in the United States.

In the first 100 days of this administration, President Trump has secured over $9 trillion in commitments from foreign investors.

His unwavering commitment to revitalizing American industry will reinforce the United States as a global leader in innovation and economic growth, and will make the U.S. and our partners more prosperous.

We are open for business.

As I said, the United States remains the most stable investment destination for foreign companies. Our capital markets are the highest-performing and most liquid. Our rule of law is fair and just, and our businesses are dynamic and innovative.

Every investment is not only a business opportunity but also a diplomatic one.

We are an administration you can do business with. We are open for business.

Foreign Investment Incentives
In February 2025, President Trump signed a Presidential National Security Memorandum establishing a “fast-track” process to facilitate investments exceeding $1 billion from allied and strategic partner countries. This process includes streamlining environmental reviews and restricting investments from adversarial nations such as China in strategic sectors like technology, critical infrastructure, health, agriculture, and energy.

Industrial Repatriation and Protective Tariffs
The administration has imposed 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum imports, as well as on pharmaceutical products and auto parts, with the goal of encouraging domestic production and reducing reliance on foreign supply chains. These measures have led companies like Roche, Johnson & Johnson, and Eli Lilly to announce significant manufacturing investments within the United States.

Tax Cuts and Deregulation
The administration has proposed reducing the corporate tax rate from 21% to 15% for domestic manufacturers, aiming to make the U.S. one of the most attractive destinations for business investment. Additionally, a deregulation policy has been implemented requiring ten regulations to be eliminated for every new one introduced, reducing bureaucracy and fostering a more business-friendly environment.

“America First” Trade Policy
The administration has adopted a trade policy that prioritizes national interests, imposing tariffs on countries importing Venezuelan oil and on products from China, Mexico, and Canada. These measures aim to reduce the trade deficit and protect national security.

Focus on Energy and Technology
A National Energy Dominance Council has been established to promote the production and distribution of U.S. energy resources. Additionally, multi-billion-dollar agreements have been signed with Gulf countries to develop infrastructure for artificial intelligence and technology, positioning the U.S. as a global leader in technological innovation.

These policies reflect a comprehensive approach to revitalizing the U.S. economy, attracting foreign investment, and reinforcing America’s position as a global leader in innovation and economic growth.
