How to adapt your business in an ever-changing world

Mortgage Insider

Mortgage brokers have long been experts in dealing with new challenges. Be this in the form of regulation, technology – especially AI –, a worldwide pandemic, rising interest rates and heightened cost of living pressures.

That’s quite a list, but it still doesn’t cover a fraction of the questions being asked of them by their clients in the current financial climate. So, how can brokers adapt their businesses to deal with this ever-changing world? Will AI replace mortgage brokers? And how important is greater collaboration in the industry to ensuring a more seamless homebuying and mortgage journey?

Joining host Phil Spencer to examine how brokers can overcome these testing times is Max North, director at Strategy&, the strategy consulting arm of PWC and Liz Syms, owner and founder of brokerage Connect Mortgages and mortgage network Connect for intermediaries.

The trio talk about the key factors which are impacting brokers’ daily lives and the advice they are giving. This highly illuminating discussion incorporates the magnitude of managing client expectations, the influence of Consumer Duty, the role of intergenerational wealth transfer, the opportunities attached to AI and how brokers can demonstrate their value now, and in the future.

This is an expansive topic which provides many valuable touch points for the intermediary community when it comes to assessing client requirements, as well as the needs of their business going forward.
