About MISMO
The Mortgage Industry Standards Maintenance Organization (MISMO) was created in 1999 to develop a common data language for the residential finance industry. Today, MISMO standards are accepted and deployed by every type of entity involved in creating mortgages, and they are required by most regulators, housing agencies and GSEs that govern the exchange of information. Use of MISMO’s standards has been found to lower per loan costs, improve margins, reduce errors and speed up the loan process by reducing manual, paper-based processes. MISMO is managed by the Mortgage Bankers Association (“MBA”). For more information, visit www.mismo.org.
