FINANCING SOLUTIONSDIRECT BUYER LOANSIf you need medium- to long-term financing to buy capitalgoods and services from a <strong>Canadian</strong> company, we can eitherlend you the money directly or arrange <strong>for</strong> a loan throughanother financial institution. We do not provide financing <strong>for</strong>the sale <strong>of</strong> commodities or raw and semi-processed goods.LINES OF CREDITPrearranged lines <strong>of</strong> credit can make it easier <strong>for</strong> you to getthe financing you need <strong>for</strong> multiple contracts. This also helpsyou better plan your business growth by allowing you to buyfrom various <strong>Canadian</strong> suppliers, secure in the knowledgethat financing <strong>for</strong> these contracts is already in place.Mutual benefits, mutual respectWe evaluate the transactions we supportagainst our benefits criteria to ensurethat both countries benefit by the trade.We consider the overall value to Canadain the exported goods or services; theeconomic spin-<strong>of</strong>f benefits <strong>for</strong> bothcountries, such as jobs and ongoing tradecreation; and the positive contributionsto the economic prosperity <strong>of</strong> bothnations.
