MISMO Forms Alliance With Ginnie

The Mortgage Industry Standards Maintenance Organization has announced the formation of an alliance with Ginnie Mae that will establish one or more Government Housing Workgroups within MISMO.The organization said the aim of the alliance is to develop and publish government standards related to electronic mortgage transactions involving government entities within the MISMO framework. "By having future Ginnie Mae reporting and data formats in alignment with established industry standards, and providing Ginnie Mae with a robust forum in which to develop its formats and interface specifications, this is a 'win-win' for both the industry and Ginnie Mae," MISMO said. MISMO, which was established by the Mortgage Bankers Association, develops electronic commerce standards for the mortgage industry. The organization can be found online at http://www.mismo.org.
