BAUFINEX develops IT interface to the system used by the banks in the cooperative financial network
Berlin, 26 April 2019: BAUFINEX GmbH, a joint venture between building society Bausparkasse Schwäbisch Hall and technology company Hypoport, has developed an IT interface to connect to Fiducia GAD AG, the IT provider of the credit cooperatives and mutually owned banks. In future, data and documents relating to mortgage applications on BAUFINEX will be sent directly to the system used by the banks in the cooperative financial network so that they can be processed.

The interface enables BAUFINEX, a digital marketplace for mortgage finance, to create even closer integration between the brokers using the marketplace, on the one hand, and the local cooperative banks and centralised institutions within the cooperative financial network on the other.
