As the parent corporation of the CDEV Group of Companies, we bring a commercial approach to the active management and ownership of strategic assets of the Government of Canada and ensure proper oversight related to governance, financing and value creation, maximizing the value of corporate assets in Canada’s best interest. CDEV has a track record of implementing critical policy objectives by establishing and operationalizing new entities quickly and successfully, including the Canada Indigenous Loan Guarantee Corporation (CILGC), Canada Enterprise Emergency Funding Corporation (CEEFC), and Canada Growth Fund (CGF).

We provide commercial and financial advice across complex government corporate finance matters to support priority policy objectives, including creative capital and funding solutions, corporate finance negotiations, strategic asset reviews, and leading governance practices. CDEV brings the agility and rapid responsiveness required for government to act quickly and effectively.

Canada prospers when its major assets are performing at their best. We evaluate, improve and acquire government-owned businesses, and when the moment is right, sell the government’s stake in these assets. Our foresight and disciplined processes attract top partners, protect competition and jobs, and unlock capital for new priorities. Since 2010, we have returned over $10.8 billion of capital to Canada.

Shared prosperity requires shared ownership. We provide leading Indigenous economic participation expertise and manage the $10-billion federal Indigenous Loan Guarantee Program, through our portfolio company, Canada Indigenous Loan Guarantee Corporation (CILGC). Our goal is to accelerate Indigenous economic reconciliation by providing access to affordable capital to unlock opportunities.
