Managing the flow of this critical information can be overwhelming. Is the staff receiving the notification? The Risks of using email-only as your distribution can include: Broadcast emails may not reach the intended audience (staff turnover, SPAM blocks, email overload) Limited ability to confirm receipt and very limited ability to run reports regarding verification of receipt and timely acknowledgement Broadcast email may not effectively transfer information and expectations from the law firm’s view. Typically the emails are written from the servicers perspective and devoid of law firm needs Law firms do not have the ability to effectively recall emails when needed Emails can be distributed outside of the intended audience The current process carries significant risk that if left unchecked may result in financial or reputational loss.

Example, GSE recently requested servicer provide a complete list of properties that fit a specific characteristic. Servicer relayed policy directive to their vendor network with a request they review their portfolio and report back a list of eligible properties. GSE reimbursed and indemnified servicer on each property that was reported. Several weeks later, a policy audit was completed by GSE. Properties that should have made the initial list were missed. GSE was unable to amend coverage to the expanded list of properties; thus the servicer was forced to restitution to the GSE. Post event review revealed that many vendors did not receive or read the original policy directive; others did not understand the directive and failed to correctly identify the correct properties. The loss to the servicer exceeded $250,000.
