Evergreen, Colo, January 4, 2021 – Advantage Credit, Inc., and Partners Credit & Verification Solutions, two leaders in the mortgage technology and credit reporting industries, are pleased to announce their merger.
“I am extremely excited for this new endeavor,” said Don Unger, President of Advantage Credit, Inc., “The companies that Blake Matheson and I have built, Advantage and Partners, are very similar in our commitment to our customers, employees and innovation. We will be working hard to build our new CRA into something extraordinary!”
This merger will combine two rapidly growing but seasoned enterprises. They plan to combine best practices, optimize resources for scale, expand product offerings, bolster industry-leading customer service levels and accelerate innovation on their proprietary platform.
“While we share similar values, the two companies also have highly complementary strengths. It’s a classic example of the combination being so much more than the sum of its parts,” said Blake Matheson, CEO of Partners and its affiliated companies.
Advantage and Partners will continue to function independently for the immediate future, then begin to combine their operations strategically in phases to eliminate the risk of any adverse impacts to their clients or employees.
The management teams of each division will remain in place and a new parent company “Ascend,” will be jointly governed by the combined ownership.
