• ECHO Users Group defines “MBA 86 tag format”
• Desire for flexible & integrated solutions leads to
formation of MBA Mortgage Technology
Workgroups beginning in 1988
• MBA forms Technology Committee in 1990
• Search for data standards leads to ASC X12 &
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) in 1990s
• MISMO formed in 1999 to support emerging
XML standard, first meeting in January 2000
• MBA did major Tech Committee overhaul in Jan
2001
MISMO Trimester Meeting
January 14 - 17, 2008 Orlando, FL
Industry Use of X12 Electronic
Data Interchange
• Twenty-three X12 EDI transactions built or
modified to support Real Estate Finance
• Numerous credit requests / reports, Mortgage
Insurance requests / reports, Hazard Insurance
Bills, Investor Reporting, MI Claims, and HUD
Status Reports transmitted daily
• Secondary Market receives millions of Investor
Reporting transactions within 4 days each
month, receives default reports, orders and
receives MI approvals
MISMO Trimester Meeting
January 14 - 17, 2008 Orlando, FL
Types of Data Standards
• X12 “syntax & words” come from:
– ANSI Accredited Standards Committee
developing cross-industry solutions built on
one dictionary
• XML “syntax” comes from World Wide
Web Consortium (W3C)
– “Words” are industry specific, so MBA formed
MISMO
MISMO Trimester Meeting
January 14 - 17, 2008 Orlando, FL
Horizontal vs. Vertical Standards
• Horizontal: Spans industries
– XML, HTML
– TCP/IP
– SPeRS
• Vertical: Industry-specific
– MISMO (Mortgage)
– ACORD (Insurance)
– PRIA (County Recorders)
MISMO Trimester Meeting
January 14 - 17, 2008 Orlando, FL
XML: Extensible Markup
Language
• Tags uniquely identify each field as data

searches and data exchanges
• Defines ground rules for tagging data
– Allows groups or industries to create their own
documents
– Easily expanded/extended
• Example:
– <BorrowerFirstName>David</BorrowerFirstName>

MISMO Trimester Meeting

Architecture
• Provides oversight of technical and design
infrastructure to ensure reusability and
offer guidelines across process areas
• Three distinct versions so far:

– Version 2.x: XML DTD and Schema
– Version 3:0 XML Schema (in process)
MISMO Trimester Meeting
January 14 - 17, 2008 Orlando, FL
Architecture Evolution
• MISMO Version 1.x:
– Loan-centric file approach with shared data
nodes and the ability to ‘plug’ in new process
area data needs
– Benefited organizations participating in
multiple aspects of the loan life cycle
– Was tough to design for all scenarios and
perspectives; Biased towards the participants
– Great ‘logical’/normalized view, slow adoption
MISMO Trimester Meeting
January 14 - 17, 2008 Orlando, FL
Architecture Evolution (con’t)
• MISMO Version 2.x:
– Transaction and process area focused
(Request/Response for Credit, MI, AUS, etc)
– No longer all-encompassing loan file, now building
specific transactions using reusable structures
– Structures are groupings of data that are shared and
reused by processes (borrower details, asset
information, property description…)
– Elements can be used as-is or extended with
additional attributes using extension guidelines
MISMO Trimester Meeting
January 14 - 17, 2008 Orlando, FL
Architecture Evolution (con’t)
• MISMO Version 3.0:
– Fully-fledged W3C XML schema
• (Namespaces, datatypes, constraints, etc.)
– Single data repository/reference model
– Resolve difference between process areas
(borrower, property description…)
– Consistent message structure
• (Loan, Collateral, Party, etc.)

Core Data
• Provide a single, industry-wide data
dictionary, definition, and some modeling
support across process areas

area participate and submit data points
from their workgroup or review those
submitted by others
• Resolves all issues with data or definition
between Workgroups
MISMO Trimester Meeting
January 14 - 17, 2008 Orlando, FL
Core Structures
• Responsible for engineering design guidelines,
overall structural integrity of the data standards

MXCompliance - Why
• As more organizations choose to adopt and
implement MISMO’s voluntary data standards
and schema (“MISMO Standards”), a common
understanding of what it means for a product to
comply with a MISMO standard is critical to
achieving maximum use of MISMO standards
across trading partners.
• Needed a way to identify successful
implementations and police against those falsely
claiming MISMO-compliance

How They All Fit Together
How do we choose
our ESIGN and UETA
solutions? What should
we be thinking about?
How do we know
this is the real
eNote?
How do we create
and process eMortgage
files? How is the business
data defined?
How do we know which
digital sigs to trust?
How do we capture
eNotarization data,
and plug all this into
the County Recorder?
MISMO Trimester Meeting
January 14 - 17, 2008 Orlando, FL
How We Develop Standards
• Workgroups of volunteer industry
practitioners develop each MISMO
standard, based on business need
• Reviewed by Core Data Structures &
