subject: Comergence Compliance Due Dillegence And Monitoring Services [print this page] Mortgage lending is a complex business with many rules and regulations. Lenders must find ways to control and mitigate the risks involved with lending large amounts of money. They rely on third party originator brokers (TPO) for much of their business. These TPOs are expected to comply with many rules and regulations designed to mitigate risk to lenders and to protect borrowers as well. Comergence Compliance is a business that provides TPO due diligence and TPO monitoring for the mortgage lending industry. The company provides risk management information by continuously monitoring TPOs for licensing status, credit and compliance performance. This helps lenders know when and if TPOs are not in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations and thereby helps them control business risk.
Comergence Compliance has a unique approach that involves merging publicly available data with proprietary data for a more complete picture of the TPOs lenders do business with. Industry analysts prepare a comprehensive report for review by the lenders. The service is available in the cloud for fast, easy and secure access. Most TPOS are already in the system so lenders can save considerable time using the data base system for their due diligence. Once the TPO has a profile in the system it is kept up to date and can be used as many times as needed to apply to lenders utilizing the system. This speeds up and facilitates the approval process for both parties.
Since Comergence compliance focuses on and specializes in due diligence and monitoring they can provide these services at lower cost than if the lender performs these functions in house. The money saved by using the company's services goes directly to the lenders bottom line for bigger profits. The end to end solution provided increases transparency in the industry which in turn enhances integrity and strength to the industry.
Having a wealth of data readily available through the cloud is a powerful risk management tool for lenders. Being part of the data base is helpful to TPOs as well because lenders can easily and quickly learn about them. This should help TPOs land more business by having wider approval of lenders for their clientele. TPO due diligence and TPO monitoring is essential to maintaining compliance in the industry. It is expensive for lenders to perform these functions, but by relying on a specialist firm they are able to control the cost. Due diligence and monitoring lend themselves to outsourcing and Comergence Compliance is able to provide these specialized services effectively and efficiently to the industry allowing lenders to focus on their core business.
