Black Knight’s solutions help its clients address regulatory requirements, and enable servicers of all sizes to better manage and mitigate risk, realize greater efficiencies and drive improved financial performance.
The core of Black Knight’s servicing solutions is LoanSphere MSP — the mortgage industry’s leading servicing system — which supports all sizes of portfolios, loan types and processes. The system automates all areas of loan servicing, including setup and maintenance, customer service, cashiering, escrow administration, investor accounting and default management.
The broad-based functionality of MSP supports a wide range of loan products, including fixed-rate mortgages, adjustable rate mortgages, construction, home equity loans and lines of credit, and biweekly and daily simple-interest loans.
The highly secure and reliable system has a proven track record — it has been on the market for more than 50 years and currently helps servicers manage over 33 million active loans every day.
“MSP delivers tremendous benefits to our clients, helping them improve performance and efficiencies, and better manage risk,” said Joe Nackashi, Black Knight’s president.

“Black Knight provides a comprehensive suite of technologies tailored for servicing non-performing loans,” said Nackashi. “Not only do they greatly streamline default processing, but also deliver end-to-end support via integration with MSP. No other provider can match the broad spectrum of solutions to support servicers across the loan lifecycle.”

Using a client’s loan data, Black Knight now has the ability to link it with public records information and proprietary industry data to provide servicers with unsurpassed views into their operations, helping turn information into opportunities for revenue, growth and risk mitigation.

The mortgage business segment of Fidelity National Information Services was spun off in 2008 to become a fully independent, publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange, trading under the symbol LPS[2][3] Jeffery Carbiener, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Fidelity National Information Services at the time of the divide, became the first President and Chief Executive Officer of LPS.
The 2010 robo-signing scandal exposed questionable behavior on the part of employees of a small subsidiary of the company. In addition to the federal government, states such as Nevada filed legal proceedings against these employees.[4] The investigation of these business practices were featured in an episode of 60 Minutes.[5] Eventually LPS settled with the federal government and other states and ceased operations of the problematic subsidiary.[6] Some controversy surrounded the resignation of two attorneys who had investigated LPS as part of their work for Florida's Economic Crime Division, as they claimed to have resigned under pressure from Attorney General Pam Bondi, who had received campaign contributions from LPS.[7]
On March 14, 2011, the Company's subsidiary, LPS Mortgage Processing Solutions, Inc., acquired PCLender.com, Inc.

On October 5, 2011, LPS named Hugh Harris President and CEO. Prior to coming to LPS, Harris served as President of the Financial Services Technology division at Fidelity National Financial and Fidelity National Information Services. Before joining Fidelity National Financial, Harris was President and CEO of HomeSide Lending, Inc., where he was responsible for one of the world's largest full-service mortgage companies.[11]
On January 3, 2014 LPS was renamed Black Knight Financial Services after being acquired by Fidelity National Financial, which was ranked #314 among Fortune 500 Companies in 2015.[12] LPS product offerings support origination, servicing, portfolio retention and default servicing. Its offerings include LoanSphere MSP, a mortgage loan servicing platform, which is used to service approximately 50 percent of all U.S. mortgages by dollar volume.[13] The company also provides proprietary data and analytics for the mortgage, real estate and capital markets industries. LPS was a Fortune 500 company headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, previously employing approximately 8,000 professionals.[14]
On October 2, 2017, upon the completion of a distribution by Fidelity National Financial of its equity interest in Black Knight Financial Services, Inc., the company rebranded as simply Black Knight[15] and began trading under the NYSE symbol BKI (NYSE: BKI). In August 2018, Black Knight launched LoanSphere Actionable Intelligence Platform to provide lenders with actionable intelligence.[16][17]
On April 1, 2018, Anthony Jabbour was named CEO of Black Knight.[18] Jabbour had most recently been chief operating officer of Fidelity National Information Services’ banking and payments business.
On November 04, 2019, Black Knight took the unprecedented step of taking legal action against one if its clients, PennyMac Financial Services for breach of contract and misappropriation of trade secrets. [19] Within 24 hours, PennyMac had filed a retaliatory lawsuit against Black Knight for alleged anti-competitive practices.[20] The PennyMac case has since been moved from the California court in which the mortgage lender and servicer had filed suit and to Florida, where Black Knight had filed the original complaint.
