With interest rate hikes and inflation still taking bites out of the housing market, mortgages “can’t catch a break” – as one headline in the 2023 mortgage rates forecast by Forbes Advisor described.
At the same time, there are signs that inflation’s grip on the economy is beginning to loosen. A recent Labor Department report showed the rise in core inflation was “the smallest in nearly two years,” as Reuters reported. And the Mortgage Bankers Association’s July forecast sees 30-year mortgage rates falling to 5.9% before year’s end.
Unfortunately, forecasts aren’t set in stone, and economic uncertainty is neither new nor a thing of the past for the mortgage industry. That’s why so many organizations are working on building business resilience through solid strategies for risk management, quality assurance, and fraud prevention.
And the MBA’s Compliance and Risk Management Conference is the best event for doing just that.
Who, What, When & Where?
The all-new conference combines two of the MBA’s industry-leading events – the Regulatory Compliance Conference and the Risk Management, QA and Fraud Prevention Forum – and is taking place September 10-12 in Washington, D.C.
There, attendees will hear from GSE and government agency representatives and regulators. Speakers will cover topics ranging from regulatory compliance to mortgage quality control to underwriting to fraud prevention. And the good news doesn’t end there! You’ll also have the opportunity to network and chat with sponsors about solutions that can help you build resilience, like outsourced mortgage QC and fraud audit services.
How Can Outsourced Mortgage QC & Fraud Audit Services Help You Thrive?
It’s no secret that cutting costs has been top of mind for mortgage lenders. In fact, Fannie Mae found it to be lenders’ top business priority in 2022.
Outsourced mortgage quality control services can help you not only cut costs but better manage fluctuating volumes. With variable pricing and at-the-ready experts, you can ensure your organization is ready for whatever the future brings.
And with mortgage fraud audit services, you can rest assured there aren’t any gaps in your safeguards. This is always critical for mortgage businesses, but it’s particularly crucial during times of uncertainty, when fraudulent activity rises.
