The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) today announced an important new MBA member benefit designed to help mortgage companies reduce cyber risk and respond more quickly when incidents occur. Through FTI Consulting, MBA members will now receive preferred access to cybersecurity assessments, threat monitoring, and incident response support.
The offering brings FTI Consulting’s deep bench of expertise to MBA members at moments when speed, judgment, and discretion matter most. Members can engage FTI Consulting for practical, high-impact support in three areas: identifying urgent security gaps, finding exposed systems or compromised credentials, and getting expert help during and after a cyber incident. The benefit is structured to provide focused access to cybersecurity advisory services without requiring a full cybersecurity audit or ongoing engagement.
“Cyber incidents can harm consumers and undermine trust, interrupt loan production, and expose borrower data,” said Rick Hill, MBA’s VP of Industry Technology. “FTI’s program, which combines technical expertise with industry experience, will make trusted, experienced cybersecurity support easier for our members to access, helping to improve operational readiness, incident response capabilities, and consumer confidence across the industry.”
“Mortgage companies manage sensitive borrower information while relying on interconnected technology and third-party providers,” said Michael Peretz, Senior Advisor. “FTI Consulting looks forward to supporting MBA members with the same judgment, discretion, and practical experience we bring to organizations navigating complex, time-sensitive issues around the world.”
FTI Consulting’s cybersecurity professionals bring decades of real-world experience from law enforcement, regulatory organizations, intelligence agencies, and the private sector to advise organizations before, during, and after cyber incidents. For MBA members, the relationship provides premium access to specialized support that can help strengthen readiness, protect stakeholder confidence, and respond with discipline in high-pressure situations.
