IRVINE, CA – Mavent Inc., developer of the 2comply Expert System, announced it received a commitment for $6 million in second-round financing from Financial Technology Ventures (FTVentures), which has an option to invest up to a total of $10 million.
Mavent’s 2comply Expert System is an automated mortgage compliance solution that reviews every loan file in a residential mortgage lender’s production pipeline for compliance with applicable federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations prior to funding. 2comply integrates with a lender’s loan origination system to provide seamless, real-time compliance reviews throughout the lending process. Over the past 12 months, the 2comply Expert System completed more than one million loan-file reviews with an average review time of one second per review.
“The growing regulatory complexity of mortgage lending, combined with record volume production, has forced a huge shift in compliance requirements and practices,” said Tim Green, chief executive officer of Mavent. “Current compliance methods, such as loan origination systems modifications, sampling-based compliance reviews and manual checklists, are no longer enough to satisfy legal requirements or volume demands. FTVentures recognized the convergence of these factors, researched the marketplace, talked with our clients and identified 2comply as the best solution for ensuring loan compliance.”
The database for 2comply offers more than 100,000 possible compliance-review decision points that include legislative acts, license types and regulatory rule sets. Mavent’s database is kept current by in-house legal specialists and the Company’s network of law firms and practitioners, who are recognized experts in residential lending.
Bob Huret, partner of FTVentures said, “Mavent’s team recognized the need for an automated compliance product and built a successful solution. The 2comply Expert System delivers tremendous benefits to consumers and the mortgage industry due to significant cost-savings and improved compliance accuracy. 2comply is also an extremely attractive solution for many of our limited partners who are large mortgage originators.”
