Abstract This study investigates the determinants influencing investment decisions among multipurpose cooperatives in the SOCCSKSARGEN Region. Factors such as capital structure, risk considerations, cooperative direction, and institutional support were examined as predictors of investment behavior. Data were collected from 140 multipurpose cooperatives through face-to-face interviews, email surveys, and video conferences. Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that the identified factors—capital structure, risk considerations, cooperative direction, and institutional support—do not significantly predict investment decisions among multipurpose cooperatives in the region. The findings suggest a need for improvement in investment activities, particularly through increased exposure to financing and investment programs offered by both public and private institutions. Additionally, the study highlights the financial constraints faced by multipurpose cooperatives, hindering their expansion capabilities. Strategies to optimize capital structure for investment purposes, enhance risk assessment mechanisms, align investment decisions with cooperative objectives, and broaden institutional support are recommended. The study also underscores the importance of context-specific frameworks in cooperative settings and proposes avenues for future research, including expanding sample size, exploring alternative methodologies, and refining theoretical models. Overall, addressing financial constraints, enhancing strategic planning, and fostering partnerships with both public and private sectors are essential for facilitating informed investment decisions among multipurpose cooperatives in the SOCCSKSARGEN Region.
