If You Head An SME In Québec In Need Of Financing
You Could Benefit From The Caisse-Desjardins Group Partnership
To foster the growth on SMEs, the engines that drive economic development in Québec, the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec and Desjardins Group joined forces in 2010 to offer SMEs an enhanced, potentially long-term financing offer.
Until 2013, we will jointly invest some $600 million in successful, dynamic Québec companies for projects such as:
- business expansion and acquisitions
- research and development of new products and services
- optimization of productivity
- full or partial buybacks
For Québec and its SMEs, this partnership means:
- more investments in companies with growth potential,
regardless of their location in the province - a strategic role in supporting SME growth
- access to the Caisse's expertise and international network
Do your financing needs total less than $3 million?
We have established a $200 million fund to provide this type of financing, primarily in the form of subordinated loans.
Do your financing needs total more than $5 million?
We have allocated $300 million to meet this type of need through traditional term loans. An additional $100 million is also available for the purchase of share capital and quasi-equity.
Our objective: contribute to Québec's economic development by supporting its successful companies.
To benefit from this partnership, contact the Desjardins Business Centre in your area.
