Webinar – Open to the mortgage industry
Thursday, April 30, 2026 at 2:00 PM ET
AI is moving fast. Regulation is moving faster. Are you ready?
Join Matthew VanFossen, CMB, CEO of Mortgage Automation Technologies and Chair of the MBA State Legislative Regulatory Committee, for a must-attend session on AI governance in mortgage lending — what it means, why it matters, and exactly how to implement it the right way.
From state-level AI legislation sweeping New York, Illinois, Colorado, and beyond — to the real-world risks of using public AI tools with live loan data — Matt will walk attendees through the full landscape of AI risk and reward in mortgage.
Then, stay for a live demonstration of BIG AI — the mortgage industry’s first open-source AI governance framework. Built as a middleware layer that sits between your LOS, your Point of Sale, and over 87 available AI foundation models via AWS Bedrock, BIG AI gives lenders the ability to configure, monitor, and govern all AI activity with no coding required — and full compliance built in.
What You’ll Learn
- Where AI creates real value in mortgage — and where it creates serious liability
- Which states have passed or are advancing AI-specific laws that affect lenders
- The most dangerous AI use cases in mortgage and how to prevent them
- How to build an AI governance policy and procedure framework for your organization
- How BIG AI’s Tsunami Admin portal gives compliance officers full control over every AI interaction
BONUS: All registered attendees receive a complimentary AI Governance Policy & Procedure Build-Out Guide — including a ready-to-customize acceptable use policy, risk assessment checklist, state regulation reference card, and Reg C AI compliance checklist.
Who Should Attend
- Mortgage lenders, loan officers, operations managers, compliance officers, branch managers, and any mortgage professional curious about how to use AI safely and strategically.
