Fonds D'Emprunt Montérégie: Supporting Local Entrepreneurs
Our Commitment to Entrepreneurs
For over 20 years, the Fonds D'Emprunt Montérégie has dedicated itself to supporting local entrepreneurs. As a non-profit organization, our mission is to help those who have limited access to traditional financing, thus contributing to the economic development of our Montérégie region. Our actions give life to dreams and create new opportunities for skilled and driven individuals wanting to build a better future.Microfinancing for Social Impact
We offer microloans up to $20,000, amortized over 12 to 36 months with a 10% annual interest rate. These loans are granted directly to individuals, aiming to help those with limited options — be it due to low income, age, immigrant status, or other reasons that may exclude them from standard banking channels. Our support extends far beyond financing, offering close entrepreneurial support and access to resources needed for project success.A Human-Centered Approach
At Fonds D'Emprunt Montérégie, we focus on inclusion, solidarity, sustainable development, and a comprehensive approach to economic and social needs. We believe in fostering a sense of community and mutual aid, empowering our clients with the guidance and tools required to turn their business ambitions into reality.Impressive Results and Proven Track Record
Since 2001, over 1,330 entrepreneurial microloans have been granted, helping to create more than 1,500 jobs in the region. With a repayment rate of 96%, our borrowers demonstrate both commitment and capability. The survival rate of businesses supported by our fund reaches 88% after five years, indicating the strong foundation built through our unique model.A Call for Support and Investment
