HOW IT WORKS

Tech that
democratizes
MBS trading

Agile overturns manual processes to unlock the potential of an electronic marketplace.

Agile digitizes the historically phone-based communication process to support both TBA trading and MBS pooling.

Because Agile is browser-based, lenders can request trades from any device, anywhere.

TBA MBS TRADING

Achieve better execution

Agile users experienced an average improvement of 1.6 basis points on their TBA trades after implementation. 

Agile’s digital platform makes it convenient to request more competitive bids on more trades. 

Add in a robust network of dealers and insightful reporting for a whole new experience with the MBS market.

Stacy Mohr, CMB
Chief Financial Officer for HOMESTAR Financial Corporation

I feel like the relationships have gotten stronger. I was very worried that once I started trading on Agile that I would have no relationship with the broker-dealer. That absolutely has not been the case. Because I don’t call them on a regular basis, my broker-dealers reach out to me and we actually have conversations and it’s not hectic trading time. We can actually talk about business more.
