America Countrywide symbolizes one of the greatest mergers in mortgage industry. Countrywide Financial was known to be the largest loan origination and servicing company in the US before the merger took place.

With this acquisition, Bank of America emerged as the leader in industry by gaining a significantly large number of customers who have taken mortgage loans from Countrywide Bank. These customers are now being serviced by BofA through its subsidiary Bank of America Home Loans, which is the new name given to Countrywide Home Loans.

Bank of America Countrywide Merger

The Bank of America Countrywide merger was first announced in August 2007 but the final settlement on purchase agreement and stock price was reached only in January the next year. The deal was completed in July 2008 and with that BOA acquired the mortgage servicing rights for over nine million mortgages valued at nearly $1.5 trillion.

Experts believe that the deal also helped Countrywide prevent a possible bankruptcy as it was struggling to cope with the financial pressure created by the economic downturn. The takeover brought a new life to the bank and gave a sigh of relief to its customers who were trying hard to prevent foreclosures through a viable loan modification product.
