IRVINE, Calif. - August 25, 2006 - Commerce Velocity (CV), a leading provider of Web-based business automation solutions to the mortgage and consumer lending market, today announced that Ocwen Financial Corporation (NYSE:OCN) (Ocwen) has integrated CV's Portal, Underwriter Workbench and Admin Module with Ocwen's existing system, enabling it to automate loan processing, underwriting and fulfillment services.
