Lender Insights from the 2018 National Mortgage Conference

Mortgage professionals from across Canada descended on Montreal last weekend for the annual National Mortgage Conference.

Hosted by Mortgage Professionals Canada, the annual gathering was once again well attended, with about 1,200 participants and 60+ exhibitors at the Exhibitor Expo.

The two-day event featured a mix of educational sessions, industry updates, networking events and keynote speakers.

It also included a first-time visit from CMHC President and CEO Evan Siddall, who participated in a 15-minute question-and-answer session with Mortgage Professionals Canada President and CEO Paul Taylor.

One of the perennial highlights is the lender panel, where leaders of the industry’s lender partners share their views and insights into the key issues of the day.

This year’s panel included: Mark Aldridge, President and CEO of MCAP; Janet Boyle, SVP, Real Estate Secured Lending at Scotiabank; Andrew Moor, President and CEO of Equitable Bank; and Hali Noble, SVP, Residential Mortgage Investments and Broker Relations at Fisgard Capital.
