Global needs for affordable housing, utilities and transportation services have made it necessary to mobilize and utilize public and private sector funding sources to finance property and infrastructure projects. SDG, in partnership with its financial services affiliate, Society Financial Corporation (SFC), guides its clients in structuring Public-Private Partnership initiatives to design, finance, build and operate facilities to provide utilities, transportation and housing services. SFC advises its clients on attracting appropriate potential equity partners; identifying and using domestic and international financial sources, including the African Development Bank; the IFC; OPIC and Exim Bank of the USA; Inter-American Development Bank; Asian Development Bank; BADEA; the European Investment Bank; and other multilateral and bilateral development finance institutions.

SFC develops finance alternatives on a global basis by providing advisory services needed to develop and implement legal and regulatory reforms that permit the development of banking and finance mechanisms that conform to recognized finance industry standards. This in turn creates opportunities for developing secondary capital markets through which increased private investment in housing finance takes place.
Our team of experts are experienced in all levels of housing finance and development. We work with capital markets, both primary and secondary, on program and product design, implementation, marketing, lending policy and legislation.
