Diversity & inclusion

Diversity and inclusion are more than just values at EDC: they’re fundamental strengths that go hand in hand. We actively reach out and recruit diverse talent to ensure our workforce reflects our country and the international marketplace where we do business. And we just as actively make sure that each of us is welcomed, accepted and free to bring—and be—our very best every day.

A partnership of caring

Since 2009, we’ve partnered with CARE Canada on the global community investment initiative, Beyond Exports—helping strengthen CARE’s international enterprise and economic development projects with EDC expertise. Each year, four EDC employees volunteer for assignments at CARE offices in Zambia, Peru and India and at CARE Canada’s Ottawa headquarters. Through those assignments, we help small enterprises and communities gain access to the economic and financial opportunities they need to grow and prosper.

Corporate sustainability and responsibility

Every company needs to know what it stands for. That’s especially true in a global business like ours that takes on risk so Canadian companies can take on the world. If you want to know more about our principles and performance on everything from human rights to environmental sustainability, business integrity, engaging the communities in which we operate and inspiring our workforce, check out our Annual Report.
