Our Services

 

Our process and implementation strategy is tailor-designed to successfully fulfill the needs of each client, ensuring the highest probability of success for their operations in Puerto Rico while mitigating any potential pitfalls.

Our core team of experts within DECA Analytics, in addition to our joint venture partners, allows us to bring a comprehensive services platform under one umbrella at a fraction of the price. Our collaboration structure is deliberately designed to align incentives and provide access to all of our resources and expertise under one agreement with no hidden fees.

Throughout many years of advising companies within Puerto Rico, our team has cultivated the key relationships, resources, and critical knowledge of the Puerto Rico business landscape to not only identify attractive opportunities but also the ability to execute on them in a timely manner.

Puerto Rico’s Act No. 60-2019, as amended ("Act 60"), provides for access to the lowest cost of capital through the monetization of grants and tax credits, all of which we leverage in a unified strategy to provide critical funding for your business operations and invest in growth while minimizing ownership dilution.

Our Service Offerings

Foundational Level

We implement the entire process of setting up a new operation or subsidiary within Puerto Rico, from entity formation to submitting all required filings and obtaining all necessary operating permits and licenses. Our process is an end-to-end white glove approach that ensures you are properly set up to hit the ground running and achieve your objectives.

Government Incentives

We structure, negotiate, and secure your Act 60 tax decree and other government grant initiatives on your behalf to ensure that you receive the maximum incentives available.

Ongoing Compliance

We manage, prepare, and submit all of the ongoing tax and operational compliance filings required for operating within Puerto Rico by the various governmental agencies. Our team ensures that you are in full compliance with the terms of your Act 60 decree (or Act No. 73-2008, as amended (“Act 73”), Act 74-2010, as amended (“Act 74”), or Act 20-2012, as amended (“Act 20”)) and all other agreements entered into pertaining to financial incentives with the government of Puerto Rico.

Access to Capital

We provide access to attractive capital in the form of non-securities transactions encompassing Puerto Rico R&D or Hospitality Tax Credits, local and federal grants, and private and government-backed debt programs.

Our financing programs are strategically designed to minimize dilution and maximize investment efforts within Puerto Rico. In each case, we manage the process end-to-end from sourcing through timely execution and delivery of funding, including performing the data analysis and preparation of all materials.

  • Cash Grants: Grants available under Act 60 and through other government agencies and programs that provide cash reimbursements for investments into qualified infrastructure, machinery and equipment, jobs creation, research & development, and renewable energy. We negotiate on your behalf, prepare and file your applications for all qualifying programs in addition to managing all disbursement requirements.

  • Tax Credits: Puerto Rico tax credits for Hospitality & Tourism projects and qualified R&D activities. Under Act 60 (Act 73 and 74), these tax credits are uniquely third-party assignable and can be sold for cash at a discount to their face value or alternatively used to offset Puerto Rico income tax liabilities. We prepare the highly complex tax credit reporting packages each year and manage the entire process from generating and continuously tracking the credits through the sale process and cash settlement into your bank account.

  • Debt Programs: Senior bank debt, asset or cash flow-backed loans, and revolving credit lines for financing Puerto Rico operations, acquiring equipment, and purchasing or renovating facilities. We work with our local financing partners in combination with SBA and USDA loan programs to secure low-cost capital for your Puerto Rico operations. We source the appropriate programs that best fit your needs and manage the entire process from creating financial models and lender presentations through submission of all government-program forms and lender due diligence and negotiations.
