Background

Canada Enterprise Emergency Funding Corporation (“CEEFC”) is a federal Crown corporation incorporated in May 2020, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of Canada Development Investment Corporation (“CDEV”). 

CEEFC is led by a President & CEO who reports to the CEEFC Board of Directors. CEEFC is managed by the employees of its parent CDEV. CEEFC is funded through preferred shares issued to the federal government.

CEEFC was responsible for administering the Large Employer Emergency Funding Facility (“LEEFF”). The objective of LEEFF was to help protect Canadian jobs, help Canadian businesses weather the economic downturn, and avoid bankruptcies of otherwise viable firms where possible. 

Responsibilities

CEEFC has been responsible for receiving applications, assessing the requests against the eligibility criteria and terms approved by the Minister of Finance, and entering into, and funding transactions, in accordance with such terms. The additional liquidity provided through LEEFF allowed Canada’s largest businesses and their suppliers to remain active during the COVID-19 pandemic and positioned them for a rapid economic recovery. LEEFF is managed in accordance with terms and conditions approved by the Minister of Finance in cooperation with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) and the Department of Finance.

As of July 29, 2022, CEEFC is no longer accepting new LEEFF applications. Currently, CEEFC is responsible for managing the portfolio of LEEFF assets, including loans and equity holdings.
