Core lending refers to the primary function of financial institutions, such as banks and credit unions, in providing loans and credit to individuals and businesses. This includes services like personal loans, mortgages, auto loans, and business loans. Core lending operations are essential for economic growth, as they facilitate access to capital and support various financial needs. These activities are typically managed through specialized core banking systems that handle loan origination, processing, servicing, and compliance.
