Stewart Information Services Corporation (NYSE-STC) today announced the acquisition of FNC Title Services, LLC (FNC), along with the signing of an agreement to acquire FNC Title of California pending approval of the California Department of Insurance. FNC is a full-service title and settlement company specializing in reverse mortgage closings, headquartered in Rockville, MD. The company has built a multi-domain national platform, servicing the top 25 reverse mortgage lenders across the country.

Their strength in reverse mortgage complements our existing Lender Services business lines and continues our momentum as we build a leading Lender Services organization.”
