Independent Audit Verifies National Loan Exchange’s Internal Controls and Processes
Edwardsville, IL – KirkpatrickPrice announced today that National Loan Exchange (“NLEX”), a leading loan sales advisory firm, has received their SOC 2 Type I compliance report. The completion of this engagement provides evidence that National Loan Exchange has a strong commitment to deliver high quality services to its clients by demonstrating they have the necessary internal controls and processes in place.
SOC 2 engagements are based on the AICPA’s Trust Services Criteria. SOC 2 service auditor reports focus on a Service Organization’s non-financial reporting controls as they relate to security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy of a system. KirkpatrickPrice’s service auditor report verifies the suitability of the design and operating effectiveness of National Loan Exchange’s controls to meet the criteria for these principles.
“NLEX is committed to bringing our clients best-in-class services and information security,” said Tom Ludwig, General Counsel and Executive Vice President of NLEX. “Large-scale institutions reentering the debt sales market, as well as all debt sellers in this environment, should ensure their service providers provide high data protection standards, and the SOC 2 attestation demonstrates NLEX’s commitment to meet those needs.”
“The SOC 2 audit is based on the Trust Services Criteria. NLEX has selected the security and confidentiality principles for the basis of their audit,” said Joseph Kirkpatrick, Managing Partner with KirkpatrickPrice. “NLEX delivers trust based services to their clients, and by communicating the results of this audit, their clients can be assured of their reliance on NLEX’s controls.”
