Mortgage Brain has launched this year’s series of Mortgage Vision events.

Now in its ninth year, Mortgage Vision 2018 will feature presentations focusing on future industry issues and opportunities, delivered by industry figures on topical issues such as Brexit, the competition review, lender systemisation, plus harnessing technology to meet customer expectations.

The nationwide events, which take place from the end of September through to the end of November, are free to attend, open to all mortgage advisers, and will offer attendees 3.5 CII CPD hours.

Two new locations have been added to the 2018 schedule and so the event will now be visiting a dozen venues throughout the country including Newcastle, Leeds, Southampton, Birmingham, Manchester, Maidstone, Middlesex, London, Belfast, Newport and Exeter.

Delegates attending this year’s events will hear presentations from industry players such as Nationwide and The Mortgage Works, AMI, The Association of Mortgage Intermediaries, and Mortgage Brain.

Each event will also feature exclusive round table discussions from industry organisations including Coventry for Intermediaries, Fluent Money for Advisers, Mortgage Brain, Nationwide, NatWest, One Savings Bank, Principality, Progressive Building Society, Royal London, Santander for Intermediaries, Skipton Intermediaries and Together.

Mark Lofthouse, CEO of Mortgage Brain, said: “When we launched Mortgage Vision nine years ago, we had no idea that the events would prove so popular and become a staple diary addition for mortgage advisers.

“Our objective of delivering relevant and current information from marketing leading providers remains. The increase of 22% attendance at last year’s series of events reflects just how popular they have become as does the demand for the two new locations this year.

“Mortgage Brain’s main area of focus this year will be how customer expectation is fuelling both debate and change in how advisers interact with their clients and what technology changes are in the pipeline.”
