The Puerto Rico Economic Development Company is composed of eminently talented individuals of the highest intellectual, ethical, and professional caliber, whose main purpose is to bring economic development and prosperity to Puerto Rico. Predco's professionals have already served Puerto Rico with distinction from the highest levels of public office, serving under different administrations with their own distinct political ideologies. Economic development matters, however, must transcend individual political persuasions, and Predco does just that. As Puerto Ricans, our collective desire to see a full recovery for our Island's economy is a great challenge, but in order to be successful, everybody -- and I stress everybody -- has to be a part of this effort. Economic success knows no colors or political preferences. It is a matter of strong and unwavering collective will and determination. I am confident that Predco will be a strong participant in Puerto Rico's economic recovery, and I look forward to working with Predco towards that same goal.

IMPLEMENT

In order to restore economic growth and prosperity in Puerto Rico, it is essential that we all unite our strengths and ideas, beyond partisan considerations. It is time we all realize that we must all join forces in our collective effort to succeed. I have been aware of a truly ambitious project where several high-level former government officials from both main political parties have created a non-partisan services platform that taps into the experience and institutional knowledge offered by its members to provide them with a platform from which to continue contributing to Puerto Rico’s economic development from the private sector. It is a private economic development group called the Puerto Rico Economic Development Company, and the talent that comprises this group is among the most distinguished of all government officials that have served Puerto Rico over the past twenty (20) years. Although throughout my career I have worked with many distinguished professionals, even within this important group, the members of Predco stand out as individuals of exceptional caliber, intellect, integrity and dedication, always holding themselves to the highest ethical standards. Their achievements epitomize the ideals of public service and leadership, and I can attest that they have always lived up to them in exemplary fashion. It is a truly impressive group of professionals with an unmatched wealth of knowledge from both main political parties that has come together in a way that we haven’t seen before in Puerto Rico, and I believe that it will make substantial contributions to the private sector landscape on the Island. I am certain that the members of Predco will be successful in their venture for I know what they are capable of delivering.
Predco maximizes value to clients by providing a one-stop-shop for business advisory services for companies or individuals looking for opportunities in Puerto Rico.  
Predco provides a broad range of services in several practice areas, related to a project or transaction, to the ongoing operation of a business, or to a future expansion of an operation.
