Dow Jones Description

At FNC, we wrote the book on collateral. Actually, we wrote 15 of them, several of which have gone through more than 10 editions. Before they sat down at a deli and sketched out an idea for automating appraisal processing, FNC's founders, all University professors, already enjoyed respect in real estate, finance, and technology. Since then, FNC has only broadened that impact. FNC has journeyed from a side project in the University of Mississippi's Office of Research to a thriving company with more than 300 employees, four locations, and many of the nation's top lenders as our clients. Read about that journey here. Check out the major milestones in our press releases. Pay attention to our growing body of thought leadership in our major articles and interviews. Find out where we're going next. Enter the Collateral Era with FNC. Want to know more about FNC and the Collateral Era? Ask us more about it. Set up an interview. Request some background.
