[MCT Webinar] Introducing BAMCO: New Co-Issue Marketplace

This webinar from December 7th, 2022 has concluded. Please view the recording and slide deck below.

In this webinar, MCT’s Phil Rasori and Justin Grant and Mr. Cooper’s Chis King introduce BAMCO. BAMCO brings co-issue loan sale transactions directly into MCT’s whole loan trading platform, making the process of selling co-issue more convenient and transparent.

While co-issue executions via agency integrations have always been and will continue to be included in your loan sale best execution analysis, BAMCO brings a new section featuring direct co-issue pricing for both approved and unapproved buyers. Co-issue buyers have the choice to deliver standard grid-based co-issue pricing or loan-level bid tape co-issue pricing.
