My understanding is, the investment holdup is not the lack of American dollars, but rather confidence in Cuba.

In other words, the rest of the world has plenty of money to invest in Cuba... But, if the regime in Cuba makes that investment stability questionable, then it does not happen.
Exactly! The dictatorship nationalized $1B in American assets in 1960. The same folks are still in charge. What would prevent them from doing so again?
