Finicity, a Mastercard company and leading provider of open banking solutions, announced today that it is expanding its one-touch Mortgage Verification Service (MVS) availability within ICE Mortgage Technology, part of Intercontinental Exchange, Inc., a leading global provider of data, technology and market infrastructure. This integration enables borrowers to permission data quickly and easily so lenders can verify assets, income, and employment in a streamlined interaction. The result: both parties are met with a significantly reduced turnaround time and improved borrower experience.
“With MVS integrated into Encompass® and Encompass Consumer Connect®, our goals are to reduce risk for lenders, create an overall improved consumer experience, and ultimately simplify the mortgage process for everyone by helping borrowers prove their creditworthiness in a more robust, yet streamlined way”
The verification can be accepted by both Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae and makes the loan eligible for representation and warranty relief in place of a cumbersome and difficult manual loan documentation process. With more lenders and borrowers adopting digital mortgage experiences, moving from a largely manual process to a more digital one creates an enhanced overall experience.
