with

and
advisory
relationships.
“This
acquisition
raises
the
bar
for
transparency,
execution
and
performance
in
the
mortgage
capital
markets,”
Brett
Benson,
Rocktop

a
vertically

on
the
deal.
“By
aligning
Rocktop’s
strengths
in
data
and
document
management,
intelligent
workflow
automation
and
AI-driven
analytics
with
Incenter
Capital
Advisors’
client-facing
market
execution,
deep
valuation
expertise
and

sets,
we
will
create
a
powerful
feedback
loop
between
valuation
intelligence,
real-time
market
signals
and
process
efficiency,”
Piercy
said.
“This
will
allow
institutional
mortgage
investors
to
act
more
strategically
—
and
more
confidently
—
across
the
entire
lifecycle
of
MSR
and
whole
loan
investing
for
best
execution.”
