Developer Solutions
The Developer Solutions Group at Platform is Canada’s only national, vertically integrated brokerage team built exclusively for developers.
Our focus has always been clear: supporting developers through every stage of the project lifecycle with solutions that move deals forward.
Always at the Forefront
Our work speaks for itself. We have played a leading role in advancing bond acceptance across Canada, developing bonding solutions for CMHC-insured projects, and placing billions in deposit insurance for developers nationwide.
How do we do it? We combine in-house underwriting expertise with deeply established relationships across the country’s leading surety and insurance markets. The result is accelerated decision-making, enhanced terms, and a level of execution that traditional brokerage models simply can’t match.
