SAN DIEGO, Calif., Sept. 5, 2024 — Mortgage Capital Trading, Inc. (MCT®), the de facto leader in innovative mortgage capital markets technology, announced that its Chief Administrative Officer, Chris Anderson, has been selected as a recipient of HousingWire’s Vanguard Award for 2024. In its tenth year, the award recognizes executives who have demonstrated industry impact through new initiatives, products, and services that help improve U.S. housing finance and real estate.
“This recognition is a direct reflection of the talent and skill of our teams at MCT, who continually strive for innovative solutions, while providing the best client service possible,” says Mr. Anderson. “I am privileged to be part of the MCT Team and also to be recognized alongside the other deserving recipients this year, many of whom I am lucky enough to have worked with and to call friends.”
Mr. Anderson began his first role with MCT running the firm’s outsourced lock desk, growing it to the largest provider in the U.S., improving its profitability, and implementing strategic changes to better serve clients. He leveraged his exposure to the industry’s loan origination systems (LOS) through the lock desk to establish MCT’s data integration services team, and built hedge pipeline data integrations with 13 commercially available LOS platforms and dozens of proprietary systems, data warehouses, and data lakes, while overseeing the development of robust customizable data writeback tools. Having overseen hundreds of client integrations, he is recognized as an expert in mortgage technology integrations and is often tapped by the LOS community for input on enhancing or developing their secondary user experience.
Over the past 12 months, Chris has been collaborating on the development and leading the release of MCT’s Base Rate Generator. The Base Rate Generator is an industry-changing solution that allows mortgage lenders to directly inform their front-end rate sheet pricing with their back-end capital markets executions. By combining live agency API connections, co-issue executions, aggregator pricing, and custom TBA indications, the MCT Base Rate Generator allows mortgage lenders to improve margin management and competitive performance.
Vanguard Award winners were chosen by the HousingWire editorial board based on their contributions to growing the housing economy and its various sectors in lending, investments, and real estate. Recipients are chosen by HousingWire’s editorial board based on their accomplishments in the last 12 months in both their companies and the industry sector they represent.
Mr. Anderson joins MCT’s Chief Strategy Officer, Leslie Winick (2020), COO, Phil Rasori (2015), and President, Curtis Richins (2016), as Vanguard Award winners.
