Welcome to the Mortgage Industry Subgroup
.Purpose
To foster sustainable, inclusive communities through efficient, fair, and quality mortgage lending around the globe.
Vision
To To securely close home loans as efficiently as an auto loan while delivering a superior digital customer experience.
Mission
To educate mortgage lenders, vendor partners, investors, real estate records custodians, and government agencies around the globe of production-ready blockchain technologies that support the global housing mission of creating sustainable, inclusive communities through efficient, fair, and quality mortgage lending.
Introduction
The Mortgage Industry Subgroup (MIS) is focused a global community who will focus on technical and business-level issues challenges within the Mortgage Industry and on developing applicable use cases for blockchain technology in the Mortgage Industry (MI). It The Subgroup will bring together business, technical, academic, and industry-related expertise to address challenges with the MI. These include trust and transparency challenges due to the involvement of multiple entities, work together on blockchain education, use case identification, POCs and production implementations.
At the heart of financial services is trust and, as an industry, we rely on our technology to record the truth of each transaction. The life cycle of a mortgage has a complex framework, involving many entities, for example originators, servicers, investors, regulators, and a vast ecosystem of vendors and service providers. This complexity creates trust issues and transparency challenges with no clear mechanism to track end-to-end activities of every entity, and complex operations due to the involvement of many partners, vendors, customers, distributors, and network providers. These aforementioned problems can be addressed through the application of blockchain technology.
Goal
The MI-SIG will use decentralized, permissioned HL blockchains to propose and build user-friendly apps that respond to the relative disorder of permissionless environments, where the interests of participants are hard to safeguard.
Following comparative analyses of the technical challenges (and hypothetical solutions) facing MI participants, these DLT apps/dapps will be created for lenders, title companies, capital market companies, and third-party providers regardless of location or size. This implies a focus upon UX/UI concerns over command-line tools, all in the name of access and inclusivity.
Objectives
. Each party must maintain their own independent database of customer information, loan transactions, and third party information. Data must be validated, re-validated and financial transactions need to be reconciled with third parties. Blockchain can address many issues in the lifecycle of a mortgage with its decentralized and distributed ledger technology, with trustless operability, that is immutable and auditable.
Objectives
- Promote blockchain education for the mortgage industry participants across business, technical to government agencies and vendor/service partners
- Identify specific opportunities where the application of blockchain technologies can meaningfully advance the state of the mortgage industry
- Provide a foundation for real-world use case identification, blockchain technology alignment, and operational validation of technology fit for purpose
- Provide recommendations for the ethical use and implications of blockchain technologies
- Promote the community education of, and participation in blockchain technologies, policies, and protocols
- Serve as an open channel of communication between the membership of this Special Interest Group and the leadership of Hyperledger to inform leadership on prospective improvements of Hyperledger frameworks and toolsets, within the context of the mortgage industry
