Investing in our Province and Our People
The ultimate goal of ICC CIC’s initiatives is to keep more of Nova Scotians’ investments within the province.
Less than 2% of Nova Scotians’ investments stay here locally. This number hasn’t changed in decades. Nearly a billion dollars leaves the province each year to benefit other jurisdictions.
If even 3% of Nova Scotians’ investments in RRSPs can be acquired by Backr and deployed annually, it would represent $28 million in local community capital investment, the effects of which would be compounded through the economy as Nova Scotia becomes more self-sufficient and enhances its export capacity.
An investment in the Build Nova Scotia Fund initiative isn't a donation, it's an investment in a Community Economic Development Enterprise that supports local while providing investors provincial tax savings and potential long-term dividends.
Become a critical contributor to Nova Scotia’s economy with an investment of as little as $1,000.00 and up.
