AmeriCatalyst’s annual event–AmeriCatalyst 2011 | Convergence: The Globalization of Housing Finance, 10 Years On–took place November 6-8, 2011 at Barton Creek Resort and Spa in Austin, Texas. Over 250 senior executives, investors, regulators, and academics attended the conference.

The AmeriCatalyst series, now in its tenth year, is widely considered the most valuable in global housing finance. It is a collaborative, peer-to-peer think tank exploring the impact of globalization on all sectors of the housing finance industry.

In the absence of a single, industry-wide solution for the nation’s housing problems, this year we featured four of the most practical and viable proposals on moving markets forward from different sectors of the industry.

Our theme of “convergence” referred to the delicate state of interdependence in a globalized world which impacts the strategy of all firms involved in the mortgage lifecycle and requires changing the way we think and interact with clients and competitors both locally and globally. As always, our hallmark program began with a global macroeconomic overview of factors impacting the mortgage industry, including capital flows and funding, and transitions to the most crucial issues of the main sectors of the mortgage lifecycle, with an emphasis on servicing.
