Helen Hymos, PMPA’s lender relationship manager, said: The PMPA Platform relationship is very important to us. We are pleased to have these very competitive products, which are across a range of asset categories. Many PMPA members benefit from in house underwriters and, with their binding decisions and cascading, these products should prove to be highly attractive to our distribution. Funds for these fixed rates are limited, so early applications are advisable.”

Richard Beardshaw, Platform’s Head of Sales said: “We are delighted to be working with PMPA once again to bring these very competitive products to market.”
