SAN DIEGO, Calif., Dec 07, 2017 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — The Mortgage Collaborative, the nation’s only independent mortgage cooperative, today announced the addition of FundingShield to its Preferred Partner network. FundingShield offers TMC members a pair of loan level verification services to protect lenders by assuring closing funds go to verified bank accounts belonging to licensed and authorized parties.

Also offered is The Guardian Service, a loan closing transaction level monitoring system that provides a loan level certificate of assurance confirming good settlement, valid CPL coverage and forms, wire account confirmation, approved and authorized closing parties, licensing of agents and more on every closing.
“We are excited to partner with TMC to provide their members with industry leading solutions to manage risk and fraud in funding their mortgage closings,” said Ike Suri, Chairman & CEO of FundingShield. “With an increase in fraudulent activities including social engineering, phishing, hacks and other fraud schemes deployed in the market we hope to assist TMC members to minimize their risk while achieving the highest standard in closing and funding process oversight from a regulatory & fraud perspective. We look forward to meeting and presenting to the TMC members at the upcoming TMC events.”
