A better business model–one that might attract more entrants and increase competition–would more closely tie expenses with compensation and reduce many of the principal-agent problems that currently exist.

In times of high delinquency, this can put considerable financial strain on servicers, which can lead to negative consequences for consumers trying to work with those stressed servicers.
