The people
behind Fortis.

Zain Iman, Moeed Bhatti and Mo Mohammed established Fortis Platform Ltd with a shared ambition: to create a commercial finance brokerage where the service feels as considered as the funding itself.

As a new generation of founders, they bring the perspective of people building a business of their own. They understand why business owners want clarity, a person they can reach and a process that respects their time. The family background gave them a starting point; Fortis gives them the opportunity to put their own approach into practice.

Technology helps us organise case information and review relevant lender criteria. Experienced people handle the conversations, assess what information is needed and explain the proposed terms. That approach is deliberately personal. An enquiry begins with what the client is trying to achieve. A named case handler gathers the relevant information and prepares the application. Suitable providers are approached from the panel, and the client receives clear explanations of the options, costs and next steps.

Fortis is a broker, not a lender. It does not need to fit every client into one in-house product. With access to over 200 commercial lenders through our network, its purpose is to prepare a business’s case and explore suitable routes, while being honest about the limits of what is available. Where the panel cannot offer an appropriate option, clarity matters more than pressing ahead.
