The next generation of commercial loan servicing systems in three dimensions

As interest rates rise and growth slows for commercial lenders, investment in the back office is back with a vengeance. That’s great news for loan servicing operations, which look set to benefit in more ways than one from a renewed focus on cost cutting and efficiency.
