2022 WINNER
We are delighted to announce that the 2022 Paper of the Year was awarded to Tyler Haupert for his paper entitled:
“The Racial Landscape of Fintech Mortgage Lending”.
This paper was published in 2022, Volume 32, Issue 2, and was an outstanding contribution to the Journal as it fills a critical gap in our knowledge about how a new class of "fintech" mortgage lenders that uses all-online applications and machine-learning underwriting algorithms compares to traditional lenders in terms of ethnoracial disparities in approvals and subprime lending.
