Mast joins The Equity Release Council

The Equity Release Council has named loan origination platform, Mast, as its newest member.

Mast is a cloud-native, fully configurable loan origination platform which includes a built-in policy engine and application forms that provide real-time feedback to users when populating information.

Mast has joined the Council as the latest technology member to support this market growth through their partnerships with later life lenders and their commitment to expanding innovation in the industry.

The platform said it is proud to support the Council’s mission to promote high standards, inform consumer choice, and build industry collaboration with later life lenders.

Jim Boyd, CEO of the Equity Release Council, said: “We welcome Mast to the Council as our newest technology member.

“While customers are unlikely to be aware of the hard work that advisers, providers and technology companies do behind the scenes to make the lending process as smooth and seamless as possible, they benefit from the results. 

“We are therefore pleased that Mast can join the Council to add their expertise in driving the market forward and upholding high standards in this important sector.”

Joy Joseph Absiaab, CEO of Mast, said: “At Mast, we’re transforming the lending industry with a platform designed to make lending simpler, smoother, and faster.

“As one of the few self-service platforms on the market, we are committed to helping lenders deliver favourable outcomes to both customers and advisers by operating more efficiently.

“We look forward to collaborating with the Council and its members to explore how our digital infrastructure can support best lending and growth across the entire equity release journey.”
