Most Innovative Packager

Winner: The Mortgage Times Group

Second: Exclusive Connections
Third: Enterprise

The Mortgage Times Group has continued in 2007 to consolidate its position at the top of the UK mortgage packaging market, as well as being the fastest growing mortgage and insurance network of the year.

The Group has continued to further evolve its proposition and allow members access to more choice than ever with market-leading products over a large panel of lenders, along with over 30 in-house lender underwriters in addition to its existing packaging team based in Central London making for an efficient service.

The award was also a reflection of The Group’s investment and dynamic approach to technology in 2007. The Group has major plans which is spearheaded with the development of its state of the art trading platform Vision Mortgage Software, which will allow the user to complete a generic form and submit it to every packaged lender on its extensive packaged panel, and retain all the information entered into the system which will then feed into the Group’s back office system. The new case-tracking system on offer also allows users to check their case at every stage of the application process in real-time.

Chris May, director of The Mortgage Times Group, commented upon receiving the award: “This is a fantastic achievement for everyone involved with The Mortgage Times Group, and to be recognised as the top innovator in the marketplace today is testament to the drive and determination we’ve shown to evolve as a company and never stand still.
