The recent ordering of two US mortgage lenders to factor crypto wealth into serviceability has some speculating on the future of lending in Australia. A history of slow-to-act regulators is likely to keep this trend out of Australia.

This was the topic of discussion in this week’s episode of Broker Daily Uncut. Host Jack Campbell was joined by co-hosts Phil Tarrant and Alex Whitlock to unpack the future of crypto in Australia.

The disinterest domestically fails to cater to the diverse circumstances of the modern borrower and is a detriment to consumers who capitalised on digital currency.

The success of the inaugural Broker Innovation Summit was captured in a live recording from the crew.

The theme of the day was get comfortable with being uncomfortable. With innovation in the industry at its peak, those who are proactively learning will be better equipped to meet the challenges of a shifting industry.

Disruption is at record high. However, this should not be seen as an ugly word. Disruption can be positive so long as you have the skills to manage it.

As the financial year comes to a close, business owners will be preparing for the year ahead. It’s prime time to reflect, review, reset, and prepare.

In this week’s episode of Business Accelerator, host Alex Whitlock and co-host Jason Back urge business leaders to reflect on performance, prioritise personal wellbeing, and set future goals.

This podcast emphasises proactive planning and self-care to thrive in a high-pressure industry.

Discussions around the servicing of SME clients often revolve around helping them with business loan needs. But what about when that client needs a home loan?

This was the topic of discussion in this week’s episode of Finance Specialist.

Self-employed business owners can be tricky customers. A lack of documentation and irregular income can make for a challenge when securing a loan.

Accendo’s Trent Carter emphasised the avoidance of “lazy broking”. Don’t jump at the easy solution as it may not be right for that client. Brokers must assess the best long-term solution for the borrower.

The broking industry is at a pivotal moment, with innovation, regulation, and market dynamics shaping its future.

This was the topic of discussion in this latest episode of Broker Daily Uncut, with host Jack Campbell and co-hosts Phil Tarrant and Alex Whitlock.

Brokers must navigate a quickly shifting industry as scrutiny remains high, innovation continues to expand, and market share increases.

In this latest episode of Business Accelerator, host Phil Tarrant and co-host Jason Back highlight that innovation goes further than tech.

The broker of the future isn’t just a loan processor – they’re a financial architect, guiding clients through wealth creation, debt reduction, and multi-generational planning.

Innovation doesn’t always require massive disruption. Sometimes, it’s about refining small processes.

In a special episode of Finance Specialist, the usual crew is joined by FBAA’s national commercial and asset manager, Steve Ragany.

The discussion covers plenty of areas, but most importantly, the power of continuous education.

The finance broking industry is dynamic, requiring ongoing development and diversification. Brokers who embrace change, leverage technology, and prioritise client relationships will thrive.

As the market switches from digital prime to AI prime, brokers are faced with a challenge.

In this special episode of Broker Daily Uncut, data and AI executive Silvio Giorgio and CEO and managing director of Borg Financial, MyVirtualBroker, and Raine&Horne Shoreline, Christopher Borg, discuss AI and its impact on modern lending.

AI will replace jobs, but remaining on the front foot and leveraging this tech to drive momentum will separate the industry.

While the need for human connection will remain, the state of broking as we know it is at an inflection point.

Both Giorgio and Borg are keynote speaker at the Broker Innovation Summit on 25 June. To secure your tickets now, click here.
