LIXI's growth leads to new full time ceo position The Lending Industry XML Initiative (LIXI) is pleased to announce a changing of the guard with a newly created full time CEO role, bolstered by additional administrative support to take the organisation into the next stage of its development. LIXI has created the new executive position at this critical point in the organisation’s history to drive the strategic direction and continued growth of LIXI’s contribution to the lending industry in Australia. The core responsibilities of the role will be to:
Announcing the changes, LIXI Chairman John Hearne said “The current CEO role has been filled on a part time basis, two days per week and the Board recognised we need a full time leader to drive the organisation to achieve these objectives. Unfortunately, due to other business commitments our current CEO, Mr Vasiliadis, is unable to commit to a position on a full time basis.” John adds, “On behalf of the Board and LIXI’s members, I would like to thank current CEO Socrates Vasiliadis for his ongoing dedication and commitment to LIXI. He has contributed greatly to the achievements of LIXI during the past three years as CEO and prior to that as Chairman. We are pleased to learn that Mr Vasiliadis wishes to continue his association with LIXI and is considering running for a director’s position at the next AGM.” Recruitment for the new position is currently underway and the Board expects to appoint the successful candidate by the beginning of July. For further information regarding the CEO Position, or to arrange an interview, please contact: John Hearne

product standards reference tool provides up-to-date loan information CIO - New reference tool provides up-to-date loan information Infoworld - New reference tool provides up-to-date loan information Computer World - The Lending Industry XML Initiative (LIXI), in partnership with NICTA has developed Visible Loans, a new 'publish and subscribe' reference tool that lets lenders and brokers share accurate, instant information on loan products. Visible Loans is a first for Australia, which has relied on manual processes (faxes and e-mails) to update critical loan information.
Two new LIXI standards are ready for business Two important new LIXI standards have completed development and are now available for download and use by members: LIXI CAL 1.4 extends the Credit Application Language to explicitly support applications for non-conforming loans and equity release (or “reverse mortgage”) loans. LIXI Commissions 1.1 is a major re-write of the original Commissions standard that we believe delivers a practical, functional solution to a business problem that currently creates endless headaches for both brokers and lenders. With help from Microsoft we are planning a to provide a Reference Implementation of LIXI Commissions in the near future. As usual the Reference Implementation will be available free to all LIXI members.
Yet another new LIXI standard is now ready for business After a long gestation the LIXI Products standard has finally been released for general use. LIXI Products 1.3 is a schema for describing key characteristics of mortgage lending products. It’s intended use is the timely online update of product information held by third parties - in particular the databases maintained by mortgage brokers.

LIXI Banner Advertising LIXI has been firmly established as the number one business enabler in the Lending market by delivering major benefits to the organisations that embed it in their processing activities.
