IN MANY ways, underwriters like Lianne Smith aren’t just the backbone of the mortgage industry – they’re one of the housing industry’s most crucial pillars. Working diligently on a multitude of files at any given moment, underwriters do their best to make deals work by drawing upon their vast knowledge base. Given how much potential risk lenders assume with each and every mortgage, it takes an adroit underwriter to balance that risk with the rewards – and, when necessary, exercise reserve.
“I’m honoured to have won. This recognition means a lot to me ... I’ll be advertising my award” LIANNE SMITH Street Capital Bank of Canada
Smith, a senior mortgage underwriter at Street Capital Bank of Canada, was nominated for Lender Underwriter of the Year last year, and after underwriting a slew of deals and earning yet more praise from her peers in the industry, she handily took home the prize this year.
