Rocktop Technologies LLC, a technology and artificial intelligence-enabled solutions-as-a-service firm, announced the acquisition of Incenter Capital Advisors, which provides advisory services in the trading and pricing of mortgage servicing rights (MSRs) and post-transactional support in the transference of these assets.
The acquisition, announced on Friday, unites Rocktop’s data and document infrastructure that supports valuation, transaction and portfolio management, AI-powered automation and analytical platforms with Incenter Capital Advisors’ MSR market knowledge and advisory relationships.
“This acquisition raises the bar for transparency, execution and performance in the mortgage capital markets,” Brett Benson, Rocktop Technologies’ co-president and chief investment officer, said in a statement.
“Incenter Capital Advisors’ seasoned capital markets expertise and trusted relationships are a perfect match for Rocktop’s data-first infrastructure and automation capabilities,” he added. “Together, we can offer our clients a vertically integrated, technology-powered solution from trade idea to execution to portfolio surveillance.”
Tom Piercy, managing director of Incenter Capital Advisors, also commented 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 data 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.”
