MBA Mergers & Acquisitions Workshop in Phoenix Jan. 20-21

The Mortgage Bankers Association’s second annual Mergers and Acquisitions Workshop takes place Jan. 20-21 at the Hilton Phoenix Airport.   

Buying, Selling or Growing a Mortgage Business?

Margin tightening, production and servicing cost pressures, stricter capital and liquidity requirements and a flat industry volume forecast–today’s business and regulatory environment presents both opportunities and challenges for mortgage company executives.  

Whether you are a buyer or a seller, hear from the experts and network with your peers at MBA’s second annual Mergers and Acquisitions Workshop.  

Taking place on the evening of January 20 and all day on January 21 in Phoenix, this workshop brings together top advisors in the field as well as buyers, sellers, investors and other stakeholders.  

Attend this important event to discuss and debate M&A-related issues and gain the critical insight you need to make informed strategic decisions. Whether you are ready to move forward, or are simply exploring your options, your decisions will be clearer by attending this Workshop.
