Financial Advisory Services for Higher Education Financing and Bond Issuance

The Virgin Islands Public Finance Authority in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands, is seeking a qualified financial advisor to support its higher education financing and bond issuance initiatives. The authority requires strategic guidance and technical assistance to manage capital financing, debt structuring, and bond issuance for institutional capital projects, public-private partnerships, and strategic project financing. To address its capital funding needs, the authority must evaluate and structure various financing mechanisms, including revenue bonds, public and federal financing programs, commercial bank financing, and debt restructuring or refinancing opportunities. The selected advisor will perform all work offsite over a contract period of three years. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. The authority is accepting digital proposals submitted via email or through its online portal, and the agency has not disclosed a specific budget, indicating instead that it is looking for proposals to determine the cost structure.
