Synopsis

Abstract

This Financial Insights report examines the results of new our research on the emergence of fraud in the home equity portfolio and advises lenders on how best to recognize and better manage home equity portfolio fraud.

Mortgage and home equity loans are similar products ? the only real differences are in the lien position of the mortgage and in the way that the customer gains access to the funds. "It stands to reason then that fraud in home equity lending would look very much like fraud in mortgage lending," said Christine Pratt, research director for Consumer Banking and Credit. "In most cases that is true, but what isn't true is that home equity lenders are always mortgage lenders, or that they know how to defend against fraud risk."
