Ditech Converts 1.4 Million Customers To Black Knight’s LoanSphere MSP Servicing System


  • Ditech converted approximately 1.4 million customers to Black Knight’s MSP system.
  • Conversion is a significant step in Ditech’s migration to using MSP as its sole servicing platform.
  • As previously announced, Ditech also implemented two Black Knight LoanSphere solutions that integrate with MSP: LoanSphere Bankruptcy and Foreclosure and LoanSphere Invoicing.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., April 25, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ditech Financial LLC (“Ditech”) and Black Knight Financial Services, Inc. (NYSE:BKFS), a leading provider of integrated technology, data and analytics to the mortgage and real estate industries, announced today that Ditech, has converted approximately 1.4 million customers from its servicing and sub-servicing portfolios onto LoanSphere MSP, Black Knight’s industry-leading loan servicing system.

MSP offers a single, comprehensive platform to support mortgage loans and home equity products that helps clients manage all servicing processes, including loan boarding, payment processing, escrow administration, default management and more.

“We selected MSP because of its ability to provide Ditech with a robust, industry-standard servicing solution with the scale to support our servicing and sub-servicing business. We anticipate this technology will further enhance our ability to deliver an exceptional customer experience as well as our compliance capabilities, an important consideration in our industry’s ever-changing regulatory environment,” said David Schneider, president of Ditech. “We believe the conversion was successful, largely due to the tireless efforts of Ditech’s knowledgeable and talented staff coupled with Black Knight’s experienced implementation and support teams, who provided strong technical, application and operational assistance throughout the process.”

As previously announced, Ditech also implemented LoanSphere Bankruptcy and Foreclosure, an enterprise workflow application to support the bankruptcy and foreclosure processes; and LoanSphere Invoicing, a Web-based solution that streamlines billing and invoicing. Both solutions integrate with MSP.

“Black Knight has a strong track record of successful conversions and we were pleased to partner with Ditech to support this implementation,” said Joe Nackashi, president of Black Knight’s Servicing Technologies division. “We look forward to continuing our partnership with Ditech by supporting their operational goals and future successes.”
