Overview
A NATIONAL LEADER IN MUNICIPAL FINANCE SINCE 1990

EFC annually reviews its portfolio and leverages its high credit rating and market demand for tax-exempt bonds to provide capital for wastewater and drinking water projects and refund certain prior bonds. Refunding bonds help EFC's municipal partners recognize savings on qualified existing bonds. Local governments and public authorities participate in project financings through EFC and receive low-interest financings for various drinking water and wastewater infrastructure projects through the state’s Clean Water State Revolving Fund and Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. Refunding bond sales deliver additional savings for EFC’s municipal partners by refinancing the original bonds that funded their projects at an even lower interest rate.
