Scottish Building Society launches broker portal

The portal will be known as ‘Scottish Intermediaries Online’ and will be rolled out in stages throughout the year.

Scottish Building Society is launching an online broker portal designed and built by software provider Mutual Vision for brokers north of the border.

The portal will be known as ‘Scottish Intermediaries Online’ and will be rolled out in stages throughout the year.

Mark Thomson, chief executive of Scottish Building Society, said: “For our society to remain relevant, it is important that we are able to provide online functionality to our mortgage intermediaries, and we are delighted to be working in partnership with Mutual Vision to make this a reality.

“The combination of our traditional approach to mortgage underwriting with Mutual Vision’s considerable expertise in their field will, I am sure, provide our mortgage brokers with an effective solution to meet their clients’ needs.”

George Webb, chief executive of Mutual Vision, added: “The user experience and look-and-feel are both essential to success - and we have an excellent track record on each, ensuring clients deliver the results required within a secure environment.

“Even first time users get up to speed quickly, and everyone benefits; from end-client to intermediary to the building society itself.”
