IMN NPL/RPL Series, Non-Performing Asset Financing, Constantine, BofI Fed Bank Jun 01, 2018

Show notes

At the MBA Secondary Marketing conference last week, it was apparent that investor appetite for non-QM loans is growing at a brisk pace. Qualified mortgage applicants are getting harder to find and the market potential for non-QM borrowers is only growing.

It's estimated by many that the huge swath of would-be non-QM borrowers are likely the future of the mortgage industry. Growth in non-QM lending is predicted to grow by over 400% next year. It's reasonable to associate increased non-QM lending with a stable NPL and RPL business for the foreseeable future.

Joining the podcast to discuss the non-performing asset space is Tom Constantine, Executive Vice President and Chief Credit Officer at BofI Federal Bank. Prior to joining BofI in 2010, Tom was a senior examiner with the Office of Thrift Supervision. BofI Federal Bank is unique in that it is a branchless bank with over 10 billion in assets.

Show notes

It has been widely recognized that the high level of nonperforming loans in certain European countries is an obstacle to economic growth and a burden on their banking sectors.

One such measure is to set up Asset Management Companies at a national level to more effectively manage distressed debt and real estate. The report stated that the Asset Management Companies should be modeled on best practices adopted by other more experienced countries.
