Economic Development

Healthy First Nation communities require sustainable economic opportunities in order to prosper and achieve their goals.

NRT is committed to helping communities take advantage of economic development opportunities. To this end, we have spearheaded the BC First Nations Equity Fund in partnership with All Nations Trust Company (ANTCO) and Nuu-chah-nulth Economic Development Corporation (NEDC), and we are looking for additional partners to help us grow the fund.

NRT, ANTCO and NEDC have each committed $1.67 million in seed capital to the fund, and our goal is to attract additional capital to grow the fund to $50 million.

Other interested parties should contact NRT CEO Cliff Fregin.
