ALL ABOARD! LEVERAGING THE POWER OF DIGITAL TO ENSURE A SMOOTH JOURNEY TO HOMEOWNERSHIP
Harvesting consumer data insights can be like finding a needle in a haystack that is getting bigger fast. Without the right tools, it takes time and money. It is also difficult to do well at scale, and creates data management and privacy challenges to remain compliant with fair lending regulations. How do different consumers shop for mortgages? And are mortgage lenders well equipped to seize on signals to break through with borrowers earlier in the journey to homeownership?

BEYOND COVID-19: DIGITISING THE MORTGAGE BUSINESS FOR FUTURE SUCCESS
Now that they’ve overcome initial shocks of the health crisis, many lenders are looking to digitise those parts of the business that are still impeded by paper-based, manual processes. By scaling up initiatives and building on progress made over the past two years, banks can get closer to full-scale digitisation. This should result in a shorter and more streamlined process for fulfilling mortgage loans that can lead to a better customer experience, all while lowering operational costs, mitigating risks, and delivering superior financial performance in the long run.
