Focus on CIB

The Canada Infrastructure Bank (CIB) was established by the Government of Canada to invest in revenue-generating infrastructure which benefits Canadians and attracts private capital. We are a catalyst for private investment in projects that support economic growth. We are working on investment opportunities, from coast to coast to coast, which reflect our priority sectors for investment – green infrastructure, clean power, public transit, trade and transportation and broadband infrastructure.
