The Mortgage Bankers Association has formed three new partnerships in an effort to provide new benefits to members.
Among the new partnerships is one with Fannie Mae that will allow members to take advantage of discounts on Desktop Underwriter fees and other services. The agreement will also feature education, training and industry engagement offerings.
In addition, the MBA created new partnerships with Capital Markets Cooperative and The Mortgage Collaborative. The first partnership with the mortgage banking network will allow the MBA's members to receive discounts on preferred providers, risk management services, co-issue servicing acquisition and MSR valuations.
The alliance with The Mortgage Collaborative will similarly let MBA members benefit from the network's existing relationships with services suppliers, investors and others in the mortgage industry.
