Lenders and mortgage experts will explore how Home Buying Reform and Smart Data are expected to reshape mortgage operations when Novus Strategy stages Digital Disruption Live in Manchester this September.
The transformation consultancy for the mortgage and home buying industry is bringing together sector experts to examine how lenders can prepare for changes to the mortgage journey in the wake of Smart Data and Home Buying Reform.
Hosted at the Everyman Theatre on 23 September, Digital Disruption Live will focus on the challenges and opportunities facing lenders as the industry moves towards greater interoperability.
Speakers include:
- Thomas Chaplin, senior product owner at Lloyds
- Robert Stevens, head of property risk at Nationwide
- Leanne Grange, head of home ecosystem and Smart Data integration at NatWest
- Simon Farrell-Roberts, head of mortgage lending at Skipton
- Charlotte Raw, head of mortgage lending at Newcastle Building Society
- Matt Lowndes, transformation director – customer experience at Mortgage Advice Bureau
- Travis Scholes, commercial director at LMS
- Stephen Ward, director of strategy and external relations, Council for Licensed Conveyancers
- Jeanette Coughlan, home conveyancing director, Connells Group
It comes in a busy year for the sector, with the Government’s home buying reforms recently published by MHCLG and progress on trust frameworks, digital ID and Smart Data schemes gathering pace.
Novus said guests at DD Live will gain intelligence on how MHCLG’s home buying reforms, centred on binding agreements and upfront property information, will interact with trust frameworks and Smart Data.
They’ll also learn about data exchange and orchestration layers, how they’re different and the roles they play, alongside the data strategy that will underpin this next phase of transformation.
Claire Van der Zant, CEO of Novus Strategy, said: “Anyone who has been to a Novus event will know that we are about sharing deep intelligence that is practical and actionable, and this event is designed to do exactly that.
“We’ve got a fantastic line up and content that will genuinely help lenders plan for the seismic changes unfolding in home buying.
“Attendees should come away excited about the power they hold in their hands to completely reimagine their mortgage journey and operations to great effect.
“The timing of the first ever DD Live is no accident. This has been the year when public and private sector initiatives have fired the starting gun on a mission so far-reaching that lending and home buying will never be the same again.
“This is all gathering speed, so it’s really important lenders understand not only how it will affect them but how they will shape it. ”
