Spring Finance has partnered with Optalitix and LendingMetrics to launch a technology-led origination system.
Optalitix Originate will provide Spring Finance’s mortgage origination platform while LendingMetrics will provide an integrated decision engine.
This collaboration will enable Spring Finance to fully automate the decision in principle (DIP) and application process, using data from credit reference agencies, affordability models and other third parties to provide a lending decision early in the application process.
The platform will allow brokers to transfer customer data from their internal systems, reducing the need to re-key any data.
Shelley Stern, director of mortgages at Spring Finance, said: “We are delighted to be partnering with Optalitix and LendingMetrics.
“This is a significant step forward for Spring Finance and compliments the improvements we have introduced over the past 12 months.
“The systems will enhance both the broker and customer experience by providing data-driven reliable decisions.”
Andrew Bloom, chief executive and owner of Spring, added: “Both Optalitix and LendingMetrics have extensive expertise within the mortgage industry and the delivery of these two systems will play a pivotal role in Springs growth plans.“
Alistair King, COO at Optalitix, said: “We are excited to be providing Spring with our innovative Originate platform.
“By integrating our platform with their decisioning platform, Spring will benefit from the full range of flexibility, intelligence and efficiency offered by Optalitix Originate.
“We look forward to being a key partner to Spring in their future growth journey.”
Neil Williams, CTO of Lending Metrics, concluded: “We are excited by our collaboration with Spring Finance.
“By integrating with LendingMetrics’ Auto Decision Platform, Spring Finance will be able to take advantage of efficient decision-making within milliseconds.
“We look forward to strengthening our relationship and achieving further success together in the future.”
