Calque Reaches Significant Business Milestone by Earning SOC 2 Type I Compliance

—Company exceeds standards necessary to keep client data and financial information safe during the lending transaction—

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Calque, the leader in enabling traditional lenders to offer buy-before-you-sell mortgage programs, announced today that it has achieved SOC 2 Type I compliance in accordance with American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) standards for SOC for Service Organizations also known as SSAE 18. Achieving this standard with an unqualified opinion serves as third-party industry validation that Calque provides enterprise-level security for customer’s data secured in the Calque system.

Prescient Assurance audited Calque and certified their SOC 2 Type I compliance.

“Calque is the only solution built from the ground-up to provide established, experienced lenders with the technology, marketing, and compliance support necessary to offer a buy-before-you-sell solution,” says Jack Nunnery, Calque Board Member and former president of Mortgage Finance at Texas Capital Bank. “Lenders should only place their trust in partners that are fully compliant, prepared to safeguard important customer data, and able to meet their rigorous business practices without interruption.”

“Calque worked very hard to achieve the strict safeguards necessary to achieve SOC 2 Type I compliance,” said Peter Kallodayschsack, head of operations at Calque. “We know that lenders want to offer The Trade-In Mortgage^™ to their clients and they expect the highest level of security to safeguard borrower data during the mortgage process.”

An unqualified opinion on a SOC 2 Type I audit report demonstrates to Calque’s current and future customers that they manage their data with the highest standard of security and compliance.
