We have a sector approach, and aerospace is obviously one sector where we're very active, as you know. Instead of answering for the CSeries, I might want to draw a parallel with the regional jet story, because it's a very good illustration of what will hopefully happen with the CSeries.
EDC has been very active in the regional jet market, financing customers--buyers of Bombardier's products--as opposed to financing Bombardier themselves. So our portfolio is essentially a portfolio of airlines and companies that are buying Bombardier's product. It is public information that the exposure is in billions of dollars. Just this year we did more than $2 billion of financing for Bombardier's products.
The reason I want to talk about the regional jets is that we did reach some limits in the past regarding the exposure we had on the asset base and on the sector base because we have a single obligor limit, we have sector limits, and we have asset limits.
We have been able to use, in certain cases, the Canada Account, which enables us to essentially use the Government of Canada's balance sheet as opposed to our own balance sheet to add capacity. And we also structured some asset-based insurance, which enabled us to actually increase our own capacity from a balance sheet perspective.
So as we look at the strategy for the CSeries, we will likely use the same tools. I would say that on top of that, the difference with the CSeries is that there is going to be some production outside of Canada and we will likely leverage the local ECAs to actually come up with a more comprehensive package, build more capacity, and to be able to respond more quickly to the future buyers of the CSeries.
