Black Knight, Inc. announced that it has signed an agreement with Citibank to implement Black Knight’s suite of mortgage origination solutions, including the LoanSphere Empower loan origination system (LOS), in the U.S. Black Knight’s comprehensive Empower LOS supports the retail, wholesale and consumer-direct lending channels by helping lenders electronically capture, process, underwrite and close loans. To support Citi’s origination requirements, Black Knight will be adding correspondent lending capabilities to the system. The enhancements will allow the Empower LOS to perform all correspondent loan origination, delivery and purchasing activities within the system helping to standardize operations, enhance data integrity and provide tools to streamline process and compliance. The Empower LOS will also support correspondent lending functions, such as loan registration, data and document integration, status, and condition management and funding. CitiMortgage will also use Web Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to access data and documents contained in the Empower LOS to provide borrowers with an enhanced digital experience. By using Black Knight software solutions across the mortgage loan life cycle from origination through servicing, CitiMortgage will be a Black Knight enterprise client. By gaining business process automation, workflow, rules, and integrated data throughout the loan process, Black Knight enterprise clients can help reduce risk, improve efficiency and drive financial performance.
