Export Development Canada

Export Development Canada is Canada's official export credit agency, a Crown corporation that provides financial services and risk mitigation solutions to Canadian companies doing business internationally. The agency operates under a mandate to support and develop Canada's export trade by helping companies respond to international business opportunities, with a particular focus on small and medium-sized enterprises. Export Development Canada offers a range of products including export financing, insurance against nonpayment by foreign buyers, performance security guarantees, and political risk insurance for investments abroad. The corporation works across all sectors of the Canadian economy, from natural resources and manufacturing to technology and services. It is headquartered in Ottawa and maintains offices in key Canadian cities as well as international markets. Export Development Canada operates on commercial principles whilst pursuing its public policy mandate, and is financially self-sustaining through the premiums and interest it charges for its services. The agency frequently collaborates with other development finance institutions, including the US International Development Finance Corporation, on projects in emerging markets. Export Development Canada plays a significant role in facilitating Canadian investment in Africa's resource sector, particularly in mining and energy projects. The corporation was established in 1969 to succeed the Export Credits Insurance Corporation, which had operated since 1944.
