Platinum & Gold Holding

What Platinum & Gold Holding does

Platinum & Gold Holding is a privately held Canadian investment holding company headquartered in Saint Catharines, Ontario. The firm invests in new upstarts, capital raising, project development, and both political and professional crisis management and public relations. The company holds equity stakes in a diversified portfolio spanning law firms, private investigation firms, process serving, property management, real estate, developments, mortgage funds, private lending, and crisis management services.

Its portfolio comprises six identified operating brands: Your Legal Services (legal services), Alpha Tel Direct (telecommunications), Mak Arbitrations (arbitration and dispute resolution), UYDF (organizational services), Haven Property Management (residential and commercial property management), and Alpha Investigations and Serving (private investigation and process serving). Each portfolio company operates as an independent, brand-retained subsidiary under Platinum & Gold Holding's minority ownership, and collectively they form an integrated professional and financial services ecosystem designed to support cross-referral and bundled client relationships.

The company employs 1-10 staff at the holding level and pursues business primarily through direct relationships, a 1-800 contact line, and limited organic social media presence on Instagram and Facebook. Revenue mechanics are tied to portfolio company distributions and equity returns rather than direct product sales. No public pricing, headcount growth data, funding rounds, or revenue figures are disclosed. Joshua T. McDougall serves as President.
