SAN DIEGO, Calif. — Mortgage Capital Trading, Inc. (MCT), a leading mortgage hedge advisory and secondary marketing software firm, announced that it has gained unprecedented industry-wide technology adoption among the investor aggregator community. MCT officially unveiled the Bulk Acquisition Manager(TM) (BAM) within its capital markets software platform, MCTlive!, in July of this year.
BAM centralizes and streamlines the entire process of packaging and securely transferring whole loan information and bids. The technology provides a web interface that enables lenders’ bid tapes to be securely and efficiently delivered to approved buyers following best execution analysis in a centralized repository. Investors are lauding BAM as the most robust, easy-to-use, scalable, and secure bid tape management technology on the market, which are cited as the primary reasons for rapid investor adoption.
“We initially developed BAM to address the Nonpublic Personal Information (NPI) security risk associated with transmission of bulk bid tapes via email, but the efficiency gains and improved market color for both counterparties drove rapid adoption,” said Phil Rasori, COO of MCT and architect of BAM. “MCT represents 30 to 40 percent of approved sellers for the average correspondent investor with about 1,200 bid tapes flowing through BAM every day. BAM is raising the bar for other bid tape management solutions, with one major investor already leveraging BAM to serve as their database of record for bulk bid tape transactions. BAM is well on its way to becoming the defacto standard in the mortgage industry.”
BAM includes tiered user administration, putting decision-making about access to transaction data in the hands of lender clients and their investors. Overall, BAM is improving the industry’s existing loan sale practices with quicker best execution pricing for bulk bid tapes, better communication and transparency, enhanced data security, greater organization and consistency, endless scalability, and optimization of the entire process from start to finish.
To make BAM’s functionality conveniently integrate with existing processes, MCT established two different methods for investors to securely transmit bid tape files. This can be done by accessing MCTlive!’s secure browser-based user interface or via a Restful API (Application Programming Interface) which enables MCT to integrate with various loan exchange platforms and homegrown investor systems. To date, nearly all investors have elected to use MCTlive! due to its extreme ease of use, built-in metrics, and robust user administration.
Company officials at MCT say that plans are in progress to expand BAM and its user base, yielding even more improvements to management of the bid tape transfer process. Moving forward, investors, lenders, traders, account executives, and the bid tape market as a whole will realize additional benefits through feature development within MCTlive! and the Bulk Acquisition Manager.
