MCT’s Enhanced Best Execution (EBX) Technology Supports Informed Retained vs. Released Decisioning

MCT’s Enhanced-Best-Execution (EBX) technology is the most comprehensive solution on the market to assist secondary market (MSR portfolio) managers determine which loans to retain or release.

MCT has automated the execution process to seamlessly integrate (via API) information from MCTlive! (Trading Platform) and MSRlive! (MSR Platform).

EBX operates as a “real-time” bridge between MCTlive! (“live” whole loan/SRP execution) and MSRlive! (granular loan level MSR valuation). With this solution, MCT clients have accurate insight into how loans are trading and what investors are paying along with the intrinsic servicing value to enhance the retained vs. released decisioning process at time of loan sale. What was once a manual and time consuming exercise is now completely automated with EBX, making all of the essential execution data elements accessible with the click of a button.

Features of MSR Retain-Release Decisions with EBX

The EBX solution enables clients to make loan level strategic decisions regarding their servicing portfolio using their internal data, while new automation quickly pulls critical “live” execution information for informed decision making. Clients using this solution gain valuable insight into retain vs. release decisions that:

  • Are precisely calibrated to achieve your strategic retention objectives – which can include your internal costs and yield requirements.
  • Adjust cash impact for MSR financing transactions.
  • Adjust for the cash impact of a transaction by:
    • Reflecting tax advantages of retention vs. releasing.
    • Identifying client specific cash breakeven month required for retention.
    • Showing actual gain/loss in cash from different retention strategies or decisions specific to individual loans.

“The automation of our EBX functionality is instrumental to ensuring our clients can quickly make the most informed and strategic retain-release decisions, especially critical during times of market volatility.” – Bill Shirreffs, Head of MSR Services, MCT
