In March we attended the Pay360 conference in London, which brought together industry and policy leaders from across payments, banking and FinTech. As a provider of new payment rails for UK property transactions, this was a relevant event for PEXA, and in this blog post we have provided a summary.

How payments innovation is influencing the homebuying process

The digitalisation of the UK’s mortgage process will, if the policymakers get their way, start to accelerate and boost the overall economy. “Financial World” takes a look at some of the aims and at some of the recent steps forward.

The Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government’s Home Buying and Selling Reform (MHCLG) consultation signifies positive progress for the industry, including brokers and lenders. It is garnering the government support it needs to drive change and encourage ongoing private investment in the right technology and infrastructure to support all stakeholders involved in property transactions. <span class="EOP SCXW255619221 BCX8" data-ccp-props="{&quot;134233117&quot;:false,&quot;134233118&quot;:false,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559738&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}">

Client money, fraud and regulation: Why completion risk calls for a more systemic approach

Completion day is where the stakes are highest. It’s the moment money exchanges for title, and it often comes with intense time pressure, multiple handoffs, large sums of money and a lot of coordination behind the scenes. For conveyancers and finance teams alike, it can be one of the most stressful parts of the process.
Guest Walker, a York law firm, has now onboarded with PEXA and completed a transaction using our digital completions infrastructure. Their experience is a useful real-world example for other firms exploring what adoption looks like in practice: what it takes to get started, what changes (and what doesn’t), and where the time and certainty can be won back.

Digital completion in practice: Guest Walker’s first transaction through PEXA

Building societies and mutual-owned banks account for nearly a third of all UK mortgages and a similar proportion of new mortgage lending, meaning that the sector plays a critical role in supporting home ownership in the UK. In this blog we reflect on this year’s Building Societies Association (BSA) Annual Conference in Edinburgh.
