With this latest development, MCT clients are able to make timely, on-demand pricing indication requests for specific coupons in the TBA market. This new price discovery is a significant benefit to mortgage lenders, since traditionally only the most liquid coupons are visible on standard market pricing reference tools.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI needed pricing visibility on the GNMA 7.5% coupon, but there was no screen pricing available,\u201d said Nick LaClair, Pricing Strategy and Analytics Manager, AVP at Embrace Home Loans. \u201cBeing able to electronically request and receive these indications enabled me to navigate the illiquid segments of the market and produce more accurate pricing, allowing us to offer more pricing options to our customers in a very challenging environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>MCT is proud to offer this new pricing service that is made possible through a technology licensing arrangement with leading fintech <a href=\"http:\/\/trade-agile.com\/\">Agile Trading Technologies<\/a>.
