Have you ever seen so much paperwork? Well, I would say I have when I joined the military. As a matter of fact, that is what it felt like when we prepared to buy our first home. The mounds and mounds of paperwork that you get and have to read is unbelievable. But guess what? It was well worth going through all of the paperwork and understanding what was happening. U.S. Bank has automated its mortgage workflow with Wolters Kluwer. If they can reduce the inefficiencies, that puts them that much more ahead of the game. Will it become a paperless environment or will some paper still remain?
The paperless office what a dream, these days of compliance, and having to cover your back so much in case of legal ramifications, means that the paperless office will remain the dream of many advisors. in the days gone past signatures were half what they are now, nowadays for every application the paperwork is more or less doubled and the client has to sign no less than 15 documents to justify their understanding of the entire process.
I must agree though the paperless office would most definately get my vote should it ever turn from dream to reality
