Microphone One BHMortgage software solutions provider CalyxSoftware has announced that the speaker lineup for its ASCEND16 mortgage industry symposium and user conference will include representatives from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the Mortgage Bankers Association.

ASCEND16 will take place at the Hyatt Regency New Orleans on October 5 through 8.

Topics the speakers will address at ASCEND16 will include changes in TRID and HMDA rules, the new 1003 forms, and strategies to prevent buybacks, improve compliance and promote business growth. The conference will feature more than 20 specialized breakout sessions for Point, PointCentral, PathSoftware, and LoanScoreCard customers and prospects.

ASCEND16 will include an in-depth training track on such topics as developing business rules for TRID compliance, operating in a paperless environment, mastering fees worksheets and closing cost scenario templates, advancing your business with Point marketing, and closing disclosure essentials.

“Over the past few years, brokers and lenders have been overwhelmed trying to comply with the onslaught of new regulations.
