Development Credit Authority (DCA) is a broad financing authority that allows the Agency to use credit to pursue any of the development purposes specified under the Foreign Assistance Act (FAA) of 1961, as amended. DCA seeks to provide USAID with the flexibility to choose between appropriate financing tools - guarantees, grants or a combination - used in project development. DCA activities are designed and managed by USAID's overseas Missions.
