Scale, Strategy, and Servicing: Tim Bowler Talks ICE’s Bold Moves

Live from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, HousingWire President Diego Sanchez sits down with Tim Bowler, President of ICE Mortgage Technology, for a deep dive into today’s most pressing trends in the housing and secondary markets. As lenders consolidate and capital markets evolve, ICE Mortgage Technology is doubling down on platform-native innovation. Bowler shares his perspective on the wave of lender consolidation sweeping the industry, ICE’s strategic response, and why scale and efficiency are now non-negotiables for long-term success.

The conversation also unpacks ICE’s roadmap for secondary and capital markets, including the decision to natively build critical functionality into the ICE platform—rather than relying on third-party solutions. Bowler offers an insider’s view on the thinking behind these tech investments and how recent partnerships, like the one with United Wholesale Mortgage, represent a broader shift in servicing and platform integration.
