Section 01
US Hospitality & Commercial Real Estate
Franchise ownership carries obligations: brand audits, renovation cycles, payroll and lender covenants. These are managed in-house across the Midwest.
Hampton by Hilton
Extended-stay and business-traveller assets in Midwest secondary markets, where consistent occupancy is driven by corporate contracts rather than seasonal tourism.
Holiday Inn & Wyndham
Full-service and midscale flags with conference facilities, employing large local teams and providing first formal employment to many immigrant families.
Wisconsin Supermarkets
Neighbourhood grocery and supermarket operations combining mainstream retail with South Asian food lines, supplying the region's growing immigrant population.
Section 02
Inward Investment in Nepal
Tiger Palace Resort, Bhairahawa
One of Nepal's landmark five-star integrated resorts, positioned at the Lumbini gateway near the Indian border. As a major diaspora investor, Buddi Subedi treated the project as proof that non-resident capital can enter Nepal at scale, meet regulatory requirements and still deliver formal jobs, tax revenue and international tourist arrivals.
The same experience now informs his FDI advocacy at the ICC: fewer approval layers, clearer repatriation rules and provincial one-window desks for diaspora investors.

Remittance to Investment Pipeline
A policy framework for converting consumption-driven remittance into institutional equity in hydropower, tourism and IT.
Remittance to institutional equity
Household remittance is consumed within months. Pooled diaspora funds with audited governance can instead convert the same inflow into shareholding in productive Nepali companies.
Hydropower & energy
Long-horizon projects match diaspora investors who want stable returns rather than quick exits — provided PPA terms and repatriation rules stay predictable.
Tourism & IT
Hospitality expertise built abroad transfers directly: brand standards, revenue management and service training for Nepali properties, plus outsourcing capacity for IT services.
Investor protection
A published grievance channel, third-party audits and transparent share registries so small diaspora investors are not disadvantaged by distance.
