“The Magic Touch” with Finance Acumen
By Blogging Diane, Duxbury, MA USA
James F. Pomeroy II, financial acumen and a magic touch? But how did this positively impact the
communities or countries where he did business? The most recent example of
James “working magic” can be found on Cape Cod and in Southern New Jersey!
What happens when an attractive, successful businessman who has committed his entire life to empowering kids through sport and education tackles college placement and finance? The result is hard work, international recognition and a foundation that places kids across the country.
James F. Pomeroy II is a well-known
philanthropist and leading finance entrepreneur who has launched several
successful ventures in real estate, finance, financial engineering, sports, and sports education. He has
opened a number of consulting and financial services groups specializing in
funding developing-stage companies, his area of expertise. Mr. Pomeroy has completed financing over 90 corporate and project financings world wide in his career. Now his focus remains on empowering kids through his foundation --Velocity Sports and Education and in picking amazing business projects like the Magic. www.magicsportscomplex.com
On the other hand, Magic Sports Complex
and Resort, located in New Jersey, is a project with the potential to influence the lives of
millions of kids in the region by offering a safe environment for kids to
combine education and sport play. With a projected US400M in financing requirements,
it aims to provide positive role models in “ kid empowerment,” as well as employment for some 3,000 to 6,000
people in a region that is described, economically, as lower-middle-income
America.
James F. Pomeroy II has put his financial
skills and resources to work for Magic. He has created a unique finance
structure - one that takes a
conventional real estate financing project and propels the underlying financial
instruments that investors can purchase into more institutional risk classes,
therefore mitigating the potential loss of principal. According to James, this means that
socio-economic investment models can be reborn and people can make money,
helping people! He added, “ That is one
of the things America was built on, and the Corporate and Financial America
have lost.”
Helping put Magic Sports Complex and
Resort on its financial feet is just the most recent example of how James F.
Pomeroy II has used his finance and investment acumen to work for the greater
good. He has also engineered financial products designed to correct problems
created by the global financial crisis - and has built professional
relationships over the years in many parts of Africa, Asia, Eastern and Western
Europe, the Pacific Rim and the United States. www.velocitysportsedu.com
