2025 Will Give Servicers Time to Be Creative

The mood at MBA’s National Servicing Solutions Conference in Dallas earlier this month was focused and resolute. Many of the clients we spoke with seemed intent on using 2025 to find ways to strip excess cost out of their operations and to invest prudently in technology to drive efficiency. There was a fair amount of interest in the benefits of outsourcing certain functions and finding more creative ways to purchase core products and services. In fact, as we heard in at least one discussion, “creativity is the buzzword for 2025.”
