About Export Development Canada
Export Development Canada (EDC; French: Exportation et Développement Canada) is Canada's export credit agency. Its task is to support and develop Canada's export trade by helping Canadian companies. It is a self-financing, (Crown owned, in right of Canada) corporation that operates at arm's length from the government. It provides insurance and financial services, and bonding products to Canadian exporters and investors and their international buyers. It also supports Canadian direct investment abroad and investments in Canada. EDC signed the Equator Principles in 2007, and is therefore part of BankTrack's Equator Principles Track and Chase project.
