Financial Information Collection
Information gathered through financial information collection is used to process the different programs in which you participate and that are administered by La Financière agricole du Québec.
Every year, La Financière agricole gathers its clients’ financial information in order to manage the following programs:
By using the processing tool, you get modern service delivery and simplified transmission of your financial information in a secure computerized environment. In addition, the amount of correspondence from La Financière agricole is reduced and our involvement with you better harmonized.
The information must be transmitted at the latest nine months after the end of your fiscal period. This information is always shown on the documents requesting financial information.
