Annual reports
2017-2018 report
Our renewal to surpass ourselves is a mission accomplished! Nearly $12.5 million in approved loans for 48 projects. This constitutes a record in the history of the CAE. A total of $118.3 million of loans have been disbursed since our company’s founding. The transformation of our Cercles d’entraide/initiative which now offer services to both men and women, has enabled more than 200 people to examine the feasibility of their business projects and 24 future entrepreneurs to be assisted in starting up their companies, which has been rewarded by the addition of the territory of the MRC de Rouville to the territory of La Vallée- du-Richelieu.
