FPSDC is a unique organization that brought together cooperatives into one institution to become a sustainable financial mechanism for the disadvantage communities. FPSDC currently assists 132 member-cooperatives distributed all over the country.

From a mere program called Central Loan Fund (CLF), under the Philippine Development Assistance Development Programme (PDAP), it has metamorphosed to a network of PDAP’s affiliate organization that decided to solidify their partners to be a vehicle of drawing the marginalized sectors into the mainstream of the development processes. Thus, the Federation was registered in March 1998 acquiring a juridical personality as a secondary type of cooperative.

FPSDC takes the role of an innovation leader of financial and non-financial services to the marginalized sector. It has pioneered the gorging of partnerships that transcends beyond mere borrower-creditor relationship, partnership that transcends program period, structural formation and geographical location.
