Investing in Indigenous Economic Strength
Prophet River First Nation has joined a growing network of Indigenous shareholders in First Nations Bank of Canada (FNBC), with a $3 million investment in Canada’s only Indigenous-owned bank.
The investment reflects Prophet River First Nation’s continued focus on building long-term economic strength, creating sustainable opportunities for future generations, and increasing Indigenous participation and ownership within Canada’s financial sector.
The investment is currently held by Prophet River First Nation and is intended to become part of the investment portfolio managed through Satso Ne Nojuuze, the Nation’s investment and economic development entity, following the applicable holding period.
This investment represents another step in building a diversified portfolio designed to create long-term value for Prophet River First Nation while supporting Indigenous-owned institutions and greater Indigenous economic participation across Canada.
“Ownership matters. When First Nations have a greater stake in the institutions that serve our people and communities, we strengthen our collective ability to shape our own economic future.”
— Chief Valerie Askoty, in FNBC’s announcement
More information about this investment and Satso Ne Nojuuze’s growing portfolio will be shared as it develops.
