Rates and terms they state
Read 2 Nov 2026| Loan | Stated | Text on the lender's site (verbatim) | Page |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small-dollar / emergency loans | Rate: 9.25% APR | Interés regular 9.25% (9.72% APR); otros intereses aplican en | source |
| Personal / consumer loans | Rate: 9.25% APR | Interés regular 9.25% (9.72% APR); otros intereses aplican en | source |
As published on the lender's website on that date, not an offer or a quote. Your rate depends on the lender's review. A missing rate means the pages we read did not state one. For consumer loans we repeat a rate only when the lender states it as an APR (annual percentage rate, which includes fees); otherwise read the lender's own wording and ask for the APR.

Questions to ask when you contact them
Based on what their website said when we read it on 2 Nov 2026, and what it left out. Something missing here does not mean they don't offer it: ask.
- Do you lend where I live, or where my business is?
Their website does not say which area they serve. - How do I become a member, and is there a fee or a minimum deposit?
Credit unions lend only to their members. - What is the APR, including fees, on your auto loans and home mortgages?
Their website does not state an APR. The APR includes fees, so it is the number to compare. - Is there a minimum credit score, and do you consider borrowers with little or no credit history?
Their website does not say what credit history they accept. - How long can I take to repay?
No repayment terms are stated on their website. - Do you offer down-payment help, and is a homebuyer education course required?
CDFI home loans often come with homebuyer education or down-payment help; their website does not say. - What documents will you need from me, and how long does a decision usually take?
Their website describes some application steps (above); ask for the full document list.
Write down the answers, who you spoke to and the date, and ask for the terms in writing before you sign.
CDFI Fund awards
CDFI Fund database, 3 Nov 2026$425,000 in 2 awards from the U.S. Treasury's CDFI Fund, 2022–2024 (CDFI Program, Technical Assistance).
| Round year | Program | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | CDFI Program, Technical Assistance | $300,000 |
| 2022 | CDFI Program, Technical Assistance | $125,000 |
These are awards and investments made to the institution itself to build its capital and capacity. They are not loans to borrowers, and an award does not mean the lender has money available for a particular loan today.

What the regulator's figures show
COSSEC, 30 Jun 2026| Total assets | $99.3 million (down 0.5% from $99.9 million a year earlier) |
|---|---|
| Members (socios) | 8,061 (down 111 from a year earlier) |
| Full-time employees | 25 |
| Size | 42nd largest of Puerto Rico's 91 cooperativas de ahorro y crédito by total assets |
Puerto Rico's cooperativas de ahorro y crédito are supervised and insured by COSSEC, the island's public corporation for cooperatives, not by the NCUA, so they do not appear in federal credit-union data. These figures come from the quarterly report each cooperativa files with COSSEC. Source: COSSEC, Estadísticas Industria Cooperativas de Ahorro y Crédito for the quarter ending 30 Jun 2026 (year-ago figures: quarter ending 30 Jun 2025), downloaded 7 Nov 2026. Size and members show scale, not what it would lend you.
Average rates across Puerto Rico's cooperativas
On loans already on their books on 30 Jun 2026, weighted by balance, across all 91 cooperativas: new-vehicle loans 6.20%, used-vehicle loans 9.74%, personal loans to members 9.10%, first mortgages 5.92%.
These are island-wide averages of existing loans. They are not an APR, not an offer and not this cooperativa's own rates. Ask the cooperativa for the APR it would charge you.
How it compares
Computed from public data| Measure | This lender | Compared with |
|---|---|---|
| Largest loan its website states | $50,000 | Other credit unions whose website states a maximum: median $62,500. Higher than the stated maximum of 23% of these 64. |
How these comparisons were worked out
| Measure | Peer group (this lender left out) | Peers | Where this lender sits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Largest stated loan | other credit unions stating a maximum, nationwide | 64 | higher than 23% |
“Larger than X%” = the share of the peer group with a smaller value. Ranks count from the largest. Peer groups use the lender's home state when it has at least 5 peers, otherwise the whole country. Full definitions: methodology.
Same loan type, nearby, lower stated rate
Certified CDFIs whose head office is within 50 miles of this one and whose own website states a starting rate at least 0.5 points lower for the same loan type. Consumer loans count only where both lenders state an APR. A starting rate is not an offer: ask each lender what you would pay, and check that it lends where you are (credit unions also require membership).
- Personal / consumer loans (this lender states from 9.25%): Cooperativa de Ahorro y Credito Cristobal Rodriguez Hidalgo d/b/a Cooperativa A/C Rodriguez Hidalgo from 5.45% (9 mi, read 2 Nov 2026); Cooperativa De Ahorro Y Credito De Los Empleados De La Corporacion Del Fondo Del Seguro De Estado from 7.00% (34 mi, read 2 Nov 2026); Cooperativa de Ahorro y Credito Oriental from 8.25% (44 mi, read 2 Nov 2026)
For comparison, not an offer and not a rating. Past records show what this lender did, not what you would be offered; your rate depends on the loan and on the lender's review. Peer groups and sources: methodology. Stated rates: each lender's own website, read on the date shown.
