CRS Strategic Plan
To help evaluate the effectiveness of its credit criteria and procedures and also to improve the program’s performance, during 2007 and 2008 the CRS developed a multi-year strategic plan. Implementation of the objectives and strategies set out in the plan stretched into 2014 and beyond, and the document still provides a long-term vision for the CRS.
