Darius Anderson

Lobbyist, investor and real estate developer

Founder and CEO of Platinum Advisers, one of the top five "California government advocacy companies". His placement firm, Gold Bridge Capital, based in San Francisco, was one of many firms subpoenaed in a New York investigation of public retirement funds nationwide. In 2005, Terry Fancher, a real estate mogul, a partner in firms that own Hollywood Park racetrack as well as Bay Meadows, and a gambling casino in Vegas, wanted to access public pension funds to include as part of the investment portfolio he manages. Darius Anderson contacted his connections in Sacramento and helped steer more than $5.2 million dollars to Fancher. Platinum Advisors shares an office and CEO with Kenwood Investments, specializing in real estate entitlements, and Californnia Building Bridges - a non-profit that took legislators on a secret trip to Cuba
