At DBSA, the value of finance lies in what it enables.

Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) oxygen plants have been installed in South African health facilities.
In August 2025, the DBSA was tasked with installing PSA oxygen plants across 45 public health facilities across South Africa. To date, 67% are operational, with the remainder scheduled for completion by June 2026. This initiative strengthens healthcare resilience, ensuring facilities can self-generate medical oxygen for continuous care.
This infrastructure delivery project reflects what development impact means in practice: translating public sector priorities into tangible, long-term community benefits.
By establishing reliable, scalable oxygen generation systems, the DBSA is supporting the healthcare system and building a foundational framework that empowers institutions to deliver critical, uninterrupted healthcare services.

Resolving South Africa’s housing challenge cannot be done by the public or private sector alone.
As the continent’s turnkey infrastructure DFI, the DBSA catalyses and blends capital, from grants through to equity, to advance social infrastructure that delivers.
Our Student Housing Infrastructure Programme has supported more than 11 000 beds. That is the foundation we will continue to build on.
