Arch MI and Cloudvirga Announce New Integration Delivering Live RateStar Risk-Based Pricing

Business Wire

Saves time, helps lenders structure loan deals more accurately

GREENSBORO, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Arch Mortgage Insurance Company (“Arch MI”), a leading provider of private mortgage insurance (MI) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Arch Capital Group Ltd., today announced the completion of a new integration with Cloudvirga™, developer of intelligent mortgage point-of-sale (POS) platforms.

Cloudvirga’s lender customers now have direct, real-time access to Arch MI RateStar®, the only risk-based MI pricing solution.

“We are excited to partner with an innovative company like Cloudvirga,” said Chris Hovey, Arch MI’s Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. “Like Arch MI, Cloudvirga is aggressively reimagining the mortgage process for greater speed and efficiency. Together, we are bringing Cloudvirga users immediate, real-time access to RateStar℠, the most dynamic and competitive MI rate program available.”

RateStar evaluates a wide variety of loan characteristics to more precisely match Arch MI rates to individual loan risk. Cloudvirga’s Consumer POS and Enterprise POS platforms now seamlessly connect with Arch MI to return precise MI pricing in seconds, eliminating the need to rekey data on websites outside Cloudvirga and ensuring accurate disclosure data. All RateStar quotes come with a 90-Day Promise to honor the quote as long as there is no change to the submitted loan information.

“This is not your basic, ‘plug-and-play’ integration. By tightly weaving Arch MI’s RateStar pricing for both borrower-paid monthly and single premium MI into Cloudvirga’s digital mortgage platform, we deliver loan calculations that are far more accurate than the norm from the very start and generate an underwriting-ready loan for a fraction of the typical production cost,” said Cloudvirga Co-Founder Kyle Kamrooz.
