Last week, Guild Mortgage made headlines with its $1.3 billion acquisition by Bayview Asset Management. This week, Diego welcomes Terry Schmidt, the CEO of Guild Mortgage, to talk about how Guild plans to innovate, scale and deepen customer loyalty, without losing its retail identity. Terry and Diego dive into the synergy between Guild’s distributed retail model and Bayview’s $700 billion servicing portfolio. They also talk about Guild’s investment in AI and tech, ongoing M&A ambitions, and how cultural alignment and local relationships will still be their secret weapon. Here’s what you’ll learn: Why Bayview’s acquisition of Guild was a strategic move, not just financial. Guild’s "customers for life" strategy delivers strong recapture performance. How Bayview’s capital unlocks new proprietary loan products for Guild. Cultural alignment is central to Guild’s M&A and growth strategy. AI and tech will play a major role in Guild’s next chapter.
