The Mortgage Leapfrog: Reclaiming Home Equity

May 28 | 3 PM ET

As traditional mortgage margins thin and regulatory capital requirements tighten, banks are finding themselves squeezed between antiquated technology and aggressive private credit competitors. This session explores how forward-thinking institutions are “leapfrogging” legacy infrastructure to reclaim their position as the primary lender through high-velocity home equity products. Join industry leaders for a candid discussion on shifting from “manual” to “modern” rails to drive profitability and customer retention in the 2026 credit cycle.

What attendees will learn about:

  • Exclusive market performance insights across both First Mortgage and Home Equity originations, powered by Curinos proprietary market intelligence
  • How forward-thinking lenders are bypassing legacy tech to reach customers faster, boost customer satisfaction, and win back market share with a robust suite of lending solutions
  • Perspectives from Home Equity industry leaders on the current and future state of the Real Estate lending market
  • How shifting focus from traditional first-lien mortgages to modernized home equity products can reduce risk-weighted assets and provide significant capital relief while keeping high-quality loans on the balance sheet.
  • Strategies for positioning bank-funded HELOCs as the superior, more stable alternative to the private lending funds that have dominated the last three years.
