NCSC’s mission is to provide specialized financing and related financial services to benefit electric cooperatives and their partners.
While NCSC was created to respond to specific opportunities, it became clear that it could also build value for cooperatives in other ways. NCSC has helped cooperatives finance infrastructure in transactions ranging from original power plant leases to loans for acquisitions. It has helped cooperatives expand their reach through loans for telecommunications, non-electric products and economic development services.
NCSC is independently controlled as part of the CFC family of companies, but its goal and objectives are closed aligned with those of CFC. NCSC supplements CFC’s services by providing financial products and services that CFC is legally or otherwise unable to offer. In general, CFC provides financing to its members for nonprofit services. NCSC’s services are broader in scope; it can lend to non-members and for-profit entities as long as the activity benefits the cooperative network.
Since 1981, NCSC has demonstrated that it has the resources, flexibility and creativity to meet the needs of cooperatives and their partners for financing that cannot be obtained from other sources.
