CALABASAS, Calif., Jan 09, 2008 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Countrywide Financial Corporation (CFC) released operational data for the month ended December 31, 2007.
"Our fourth quarter ended with a number of positive operational trends," said David Sambol, President and Chief Operating Officer. "Total loan fundings were $24 billion for the month of December, up slightly from November 2007 and ahead of our forecasts. This pushed our fourth quarter fundings to $69 billion, also exceeding our expectations. Although average daily mortgage loan applications and the pipeline of mortgage loans-in-process decreased from November, this reflected a seasonal decline typically seen this time of year.
"Our mortgage loan servicing portfolio is approaching $1.5 trillion, representing approximately 9 million loans," Sambol continued. "Prepayment speeds continued to decline throughout the quarter, which has enhanced the economic value of our mortgage servicing rights asset.
"Banking Operations' assets were $113 billion at December 31, 2007, with total deposits reaching $61 billion at the end of December. Retail deposits alone increased $2.3 billion during the month and $7.7 billion for the quarter to $33 billion. The Bank continued to make progress in opening its Financial Centers during the month, with 194 in operation at year-end. Our Insurance segment also produced solid operating results, with continued growth and net premiums earned reaching a record $1.5 billion for 2007.
"Management is pleased with the progress we have made in positioning the Company to navigate the current challenging environment," Sambol concluded.
