Mayer Brown is proud to be a silver sponsor of the IMN Non-QM Forum, taking place June 15–16, 2026, in Dana Point, California. The foremost gathering for non-QM professionals, this two-day event brings together over 400 brokers, correspondents, investors, originators, capital markets executives, rating agencies, regulators, and legal and advisory firms—providing an unmatched platform for exploring emerging trends, product strategies, and actionable opportunities in non-agency lending.
Brian Kuhl will participate as a moderator during the forum, leading a panel titled "What the Market Wants Now: Non-QM Product Innovation in 2026 and Beyond," scheduled for Tuesday, June 16th. The discussion will explore where product development is headed as lenders work to serve underserved borrower segments—including self-employed, investor, near-prime, ITIN, and affordability-constrained households—examining how firms are responsibly expanding eligibility through alternative documentation and cash-flow underwriting while balancing volume growth against margin discipline in an increasingly competitive and capital-scarce environment.
