At Finology Software, we have identified the imperative of simplifying the management of federal student debt. The crux of mitigating exposure to these loans lies in the seamless integration of cutting-edge technology and the expertise of financial advisors, empowering them to guide their clients through the intricacies with unwavering confidence. In response to this need, we have meticulously crafted a robust and intuitive software solution. This innovative tool is specifically tailored to demystify and streamline the journey for federal student loan borrowers collaborating with their trusted financial advisors.
Understanding the Scope of Student Debt
Federal student loan repayment obligations have resumed, yet only 40% of borrowers have initiated a payment and millions of Americans are still seeking guidance. Higher Ed financial aid departments, federal servicer’s and the Department of Education have unfortunately left a gap in solutions for the 40+ million federal student loan borrowers. This is where knowledgeable Financial advisors can play a pivotal role in providing insights and support during this crucial period until July 1, 2024 when the Pay As You Earn Plan (PAYE) sunsets and the extended IDR Waiver period concludes. At Finology Software, we aim to equip advisors with tools that are capable of generating customized simulations of their clients’ future student loan exposure via the calculation of available IDR Plans.
