2009 Annual LIXI Forum

This year's Forum – on "Cooperation and Integration" – was held on September 9 at the Westin Hotel in Sydney. It was held at a time when the benefits of efficiency through the mortgage supply chain are now more pronounced than ever. The mortgage industry faces more challenges and opportunities than at any time in the last 10 years.  For example, the major banks are facing constant challenges dealing with the increased volume due to the changing property and mortgage landscape.

Wrap Up

The Forum was an all day event featuring topics on innovation in core banking systems and mortgage processing, and cooperation across the lending supply chain. One of the most provocative talks was by Lloyds Bank and UK Govt strategist James Gardner, who's previous blog observations can be found here

The day ended with drinks from 5.30pm which provided a valuable opportunity for all attendees to network and discuss the outcome of the sessions. This was another fantastic event coordinated by our event partners InAssociation.

The LIXI White Paper

One of the highlights of the Forum was the presentation of the LIXI research paper on the costs of settlement and the projected benefits of electronic integration. Tens of millions of dollars in annual savings are expected within the lending industry as national electronic conveyancing comes on line.
