The unique loan identifiers may allow disparate financial data sources such as the credit histories of the borrowers to be associated with the individual loans, even as the loans are repackaged and resold as ABS in the secondary markets. Thus, market participants such as loan servicers and investors can access current and historical data associated with the loans. Other embodiments are directed to analyzing the data associated with the underlying loans and providing the analysis to the market participants including servicers, investors, and underwriters.
