MBA NEWSLINK: What is the most important issue facing your company right now?

CRAIG RIDDELL: The most important issue LoanLogics is actively working to address is how to bring more data, with verified, validated accuracy, and more automation into the origination decisioning process. Our regtech capabilities have already helped lenders reduce the cost of creating and assuring loan quality and optimize their staffing strategies through expansion of automation across their quality management processes. But as the digital mortgage process evolves, we must continue to innovate to bring quality in-line with the digitally manufactured loan. These goals are driving our product roadmap and align with our mission to ensure the safety and soundness of mortgage loan assets.

NEWSLINK: What are some key trends your company is tracking?

RIDDELL: The mortgage industry has made significant investments in fintech to improve the borrower experience and provide more transparency into the origination process. Regtech is also emerging to automate loan manufacturing and decisioning processes. A key trend for the future is the marrying together of fintech and regtech to fully digitize mortgage lending. As a regtech provider, LoanLogics is tracking this movement, seeking out partnerships and developing capabilities to ensure the quality continuum that the digital mortgage landscape demands.
