Wells Fargo is the newest lender to implement First American CoreLogic's LoanSafe Fraud Manager in order to minimize loss from fraud and increase operational efficiency, according to First American Core Logic, Santa Ana, Calif. In addition to Wells Fargo, the technology tool is now in active evaluation with 10 other lenders, signaling significant market momentum for the solution and continued lender focus on solving the mortgage fraud problem. First American CoreLogic fraud scientists have created patented fraud models that assign each loan a fraud risk score spanning from one (lowest risk) to 999 (highest risk). By using these scores, lenders can realize revenue increases through quicker and more efficient underwriting and increase revenue by reducing default and foreclosure-related losses associated with fraud. The solution now also offers improved reporting with more loan information categories displayed and alerts grouped by likely fraud types. Additionally, this new fraud detection solution offers more input fields for greater functionality and tracking. The First American CoreLogic 2X guarantee promises that lenders will save twice as much in fraud losses as they did prior to using LoanSafe Fraud Manager and the savings will be at least twice as much as the cost of the solution.
