A comprehensive center for economic opportunity and community transformation.
PSI has mobilized $140M+ in capital through a strategic blended finance approach that combines philanthropic, public, private, and tax credit sources to create a comprehensive funding model for community transformation.
The capital stack behind Oasis 360 represents one of the most ambitious blended finance initiatives in Puerto Rico's history. By layering different types of capital, PSI has created a financial structure that distributes risk appropriately, aligns incentives across stakeholder groups, and ensures long-term sustainability for the hub and its programs.
A six-year journey of strategic capital assembly and deployment.
Six key factors enabled PSI to mobilize $140M+ and build a sustainable capital model for community transformation.
Deep, long-standing relationships with community members, government partners, and investors built on transparency, accountability, and consistent follow-through over many years.
A strategic blended finance methodology that layers different capital types to distribute risk, align incentives, and maximize the impact of every dollar invested in the community.
A proven history of program delivery and financial stewardship, with a 99%+ loan repayment rate that gives investors confidence in PSI's ability to manage complex capital structures.
Thoughtful structuring that places philanthropic capital in first-loss positions, uses public funds for infrastructure, and reserves private capital for revenue-generating activities.
Every capital source is aligned to a specific purpose within the Oasis 360 initiative, ensuring that financial returns and social outcomes are not competing but reinforcing objectives.
Active cultivation of partnerships with institutions like Lafayette Square, CDFIs, government agencies, and community organizations that bring expertise, capital, and credibility.
