Altus Achieves Leading AI Governance Certification, Setting New Standard for Responsible AI in Commercial Real Estate

TORONTO, Oct. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Altus Group Limited ( “Altus” or “the Company”) (TSX: AIF), a leading provider of commercial real estate (“CRE”) intelligence, announced today it has achieved ISO/IEC 42001 certification, the world’s first international standard for artificial intelligence (“AI”) management systems.

The certification provides independent validation that Altus' AI capabilities are governed by a comprehensive framework focused on transparency, accountability, risk management and continuous improvement. It recognizes the Company’s approach to the responsible development, deployment and oversight of AI across its products, services and operations, reinforcing Altus’ leadership in applying trusted, purpose-built AI to CRE analytics.

“In AI, trust is everything,” said Mike Gordon, CEO of Altus. “Our customers rely on Altus to inform some of the most consequential real estate decisions they make. When it comes to AI, they need confidence not only in the data, but also in the technology behind it. Our customers know they can trust the insights we generate because they’re grounded in investment-grade data and deep industry expertise. With ISO/IEC 42001 certification, they can now have the same confidence in the governance, controls, and technology that power those insights. That’s foundational to the commitment we make to our customers – that every decision you make with Altus is one you can stand behind.”

Through the Company’s flagship ARGUS Intelligence Platform and its growing suite of AI agents, Altus helps clients unlock insights from complex real estate data, streamline workflows and improve productivity across the investment lifecycle. As the ARGUS Intelligence Platform becomes more AI-powered, the Company remains focused on ensuring those innovations are developed and deployed responsibly, with appropriate oversight, transparency and safeguards.

Mr. Gordon added: “I’m incredibly proud of the team for achieving this certification on an accelerated timeline, placing Altus among the early adopters of the world’s leading standard for AI management systems. Above all, it reflects our commitment to building AI the right way. As we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible for the industry, we're doing it responsibly, with strong governance, transparency and accountability at every step.”

ISO/IEC 42001 establishes internationally recognized requirements for organizations that develop, deploy or use AI systems. The standard provides a framework for managing AI-related risks and opportunities while promoting responsible innovation and effective governance. It complements Altus’ ISO/IEC 27001 certification, the global gold standard for managing and protecting information security through a structured Information Security Management System.

Both the ISO/IEC 42001 and ISO/IEC 27001 certifications further strengthen Altus' position as a trusted technology partner to the world’s leading real estate investors, developers, lenders and advisors, and reflect the Company's continued investment in building the next generation of intelligence solutions for the CRE industry – safely and responsibly.
