Lien perfection’s value for any financial institution is crystal clear: with real-time visibility across the entire portfolio, reliable data on which to act, and the ability to promptly remediate issues when they arise, lien perfection provides necessary protections to safeguard portfolios. Wolters Kluwer Lien Solutions combines accuracy, speed, and service to help secure perfection and reduce risk for a wide portfolio of lien, titling, and real property documentation needs in every state.
Thinking bigger picture, a sound lien perfection strategy, backed by the right tools and processes, can boost competitiveness. Here are three top-level ways lien perfection can help positively impact your business:
- Improve the balance sheet
Effective lien management can reduce the risk of non-performing loans, which, in turn, can improve the overall quality of the portfolio. - Save time, costs and resources
Streamlined, automated lien perfection operations can help cut processing time and require fewer people to manage, leading to cost savings. And financial institutions can potentially close transactions more quickly, which can be especially important in cases where a faster turnaround is needed to finalize the loan. - Improve decision-making
Broad yet detailed visibility into portfolios can give executives improved perspective on credit risk and non-performing-loan risk. And increased confidence in portfolio health frees leadership to focus on higher-value opportunities and act faster without second-guessing themselves or having to validate the data time and again.
