OUR ENTREPRENEURS
A diversified clientele

- 40 years old entrepreneurs and over: they want to make a living from their passion, but all the programs offered are aimed at people aged 39 and under.
- The immigrant entrepreneur has a job well below his qualifications, so he chooses to make his own way through entrepreneurship.

An inclusive approach to financing
Since 2001, the Fonds d’Emprunt Montérégie has devoted all its efforts to granting community and private sector loans to individuals in a precarious financial situation and wishing to start or develop their businesses.
Named Association Communautaire d ‘Emprunt de la Rive-Sud (ACERS) until 2018, the FEMontérégie was born from a request for local support from the Economy and Faith Committee of the diocese of St-Jean-Longueuil in 2001. The same year, ACERS obtained its incorporation and patent letters, thus confirming the official constitution of our organization regarding the Government of Quebec. In 2003, it joined the Réseau québécois du crédit communautaire (RQCC), now MicroEntreprendre, and received federal recognition as a charity.
Today, the Fonds d’Emprunt Montérégie is the economic development organization responsible for microcredit throughout the Montérégie territory. It belongs to the MicroEntreprendre Network, the leader in entrepreneurial microcredit operating in the 17 regions of Quebec. Its physical and territorial accessibility is possible thanks to its 20 members, offering favourable repayment conditions. Quebec’s microcredit network, MicroEntreprendre, has supported nearly 31,322 entrepreneurs and generated more than 12,904 jobs.
The Fonds d’Emprunt Montérégie relies on the Ministère de l’Économie et de l ‘Innovation (MEI) financial support, which subsidizes its current operations. Thus, it ensures that 100% of the grants and loans directly support entrepreneurs in the Montérégie region.
Partnerships with, among others, the Business Development Bank of Canada, La Ruche, Evol, Futurpreneur, Microcrédit Desjardins aux Entreprises (MDE) and Continuums allow the FEMontérégie to have a complete offer, including the opportunity to collaborate in financial arrangements and support a wider range of entrepreneurs.
