During the third part of our Mortgage Solutions Tech Talks debate, sponsored by NatWest Intermediary Solutions, Tucker said when the era of open banking and data exchange comes, AI-related changes will ‘happen very quickly.’
Grant Hendry, head of digital community at digital advice startup Mortgagegym said the next six to twelve months will bring a raft of development in terms of what the data could mean to mortgage product innovation in sectors like the self-employed and lending beyond 75 years old.
Hendry said: “Access to data will mean lenders will be able to completely change their approach to product design. This will lead to huge opportunity for mortgage lenders to change their models.”
Products, rates and criteria could be tailored to suit the risk profile of the individual borrower instead of taken off-the-shelf as a straightforward product range, suggested Hendry.
