Case Study: Major Mortgage Bank (Global Banking, Mortgage & Financial Services Company) achieves 75% faster partner onboarding and 95% reduction in manual integration effort with Astera Software

Major Mortgage Bank Cuts Portfolio Acquisition Costs by 75% Using Astera

A major multinational banking and financial services company — the second-largest U.S. bank by deposits, home mortgage servicing, and debit cards — faced slow, error-prone servicing acquisition workflows as large volumes of data arrived from many partners in differing formats. Transformation was done in scattered Access databases, creating long lead times to onboard new partners, heavy IT dependence, regulatory and privacy risks, and inconsistent validation rules.

Astera delivered an interactive data transformation and cleansing solution plus Integration Framework APIs to connect upstream systems, centralizing validation rules and using profiling-driven workflows to surface and correct data issues. The implementation cut onboarding time by 75% (from 3–4 weeks to under one week), reduced manual effort by 95% (from about 20 people to one), and significantly improved data quality and productivity.
