How We Operate

Board of Directors

Overall policy is set by a 23-member Board of Directors (CFC Extranet link), representing 10 geographic districts and the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA), the network's national trade association. CFC's Board is democratically elected and consists of both cooperative utility directors and managers.

Staff

CFC operates from its corporate headquarters in Herndon, Virginia, with a staff of 225 employees, including 16 regional representatives located throughout the country. CFC's staff has extensive rural utility finance and management expertise and is guided by a Governor/CEO and a team of senior executives.

Affiliate Organizations

CFC manages and funds the Rural Telephone Finance Cooperative (RTFC), an organization that provides financing to the rural telecommunications industry. CFC also manages and funds the National Cooperative Services Corporation (NCSC), an organization that provides electric cooperatives with specialized financing services that supplement the financial services of CFC. With a full-service approach, CFC is committed to providing its owners with timely and reliable financial and business management solutions in a complex and changing utility environment.
