The Fonds de solidarité FTQ is a development capital fund that calls upon the solidarity and savings of Quebecers to help create and maintain jobs in Québec by investing in small and medium-sized businesses. Its mission also involves offering its shareholders a fair return. No other institution has stricken such a balance, which indeed, is a fundamental principle of a labour-sponsored investment fund.
Since its inception in June 1983, the Fund, whose net assets is $13.1 billion as at May 31, 2017, has become a hub of knowledge, resources and contacts for Québec companies and a key player in the Québec economy.
