Mortgage Industry Expert Robert Davis Joins Ascent Platform's Advisory Board

Davis to lead Ascent in the development of a next-generation point-of-sale capability for the mortgage industry


Ascent Platform, the leader in digital experience solutions for financial institutions, announced that it has added Robert Davis to its advisory board. The addition of Robert to the advisory board demonstrates the company's commitment to their recently released point-of-sale capability for the mortgage industry.


With Robert's guidance, Ascent has defined a solution that merges Ascent's extensive 3rd-party data sources and modern interface design with best-practice workflow for loan officers and their borrowers. Robert's expertise in the mortgage industry has been instrumental in the design of the product.


Being in the financial services industry for over 35 years, Robert has extensive experience running large-scale organizations profitably, from managing the retail residential mortgage business for Morgan Stanley to being President of ContiMortgage, a mid-sized national mortgage company. Today, he is the founder, president, and CEO of The Bridge Companies LLC, a privately held firm in the mortgage lending/servicing and consumer lending spaces providing advisory services and joint venture consulting.


"Robert's experience really shaped how we approached the POS engineering effort," explained Arjun Sahgal, co-founder and CEO of Ascent. "With Robert on our team, Ascent has been able to provide a solution that is truly next-generation."


"Building the POS inside their Experience Platform enabled Ascent to leverage their extensive UI features and produce a POS that offers both prescreening and full applications," said Robert Davis. "It balances automation with loan officer tools to deliver efficiency along with an experience that is unmatched in the industry today. I'm excited to be part of their journey and look forward to connecting them with other leaders in the mortgage industry."


About Ascent Platform

Ascent is the next-generation platform that provides lenders with the ability to streamline any and all product applications and forms without disrupting existing systems and processes. Ascent replaces the patchwork of full-stack product applications, static web forms, and PDFs with intelligent applications and forms featuring prefilled data, optional prescreening rules and logic, and collaborative document collection. Most important, the platform learns from every interaction, and uses those learnings to make subsequent experiences more contextual, with fewer questions for the customer and less work for the lender. Using a no-code builder, institutions can rapidly configure and deploy beautiful bespoke applications and forms at their own pace.
