Government Development Bank for Puerto Rico

The Government Development Bank for Puerto Rico (GDB) has played a central role in the island's economic and social development during the past 64 years, contributing to Puerto Rico's transformation from a poor agrarian economy into the modern, industrialized society it is today. As Puerto Rico has evolved, so has GDB, adapting itself time after time to meet the island's most pressing economic and social problems. Through its history, the Bank has proven to be a dynamic institution, with the flexibility and creativity required to generate alternative solutions to the island's ever-changing needs. During the early years, the Bank intervened directly in Puerto Rico's development investing in projects that were needed to get the economy moving but which private investors found too risky.
