Black Knight Financial Services is an American corporation that provides integrated technology, services, data and analytics solutions to the mortgage and real estate industries. Other products include ServiceLink, which focuses on transaction services for mortgage originators and on default services. On January 3, 2014, Fidelity National Financial acquired Lender Processing Services "LPS", renaming it Black Knight. ==History== The company formerly known as Lender Processing Services was incorporated in 2007. It once served as the mortgage business segment of Fidelity National Information Services, spinning off in 2008 to become a fully independent, publicly traded company on the New York Stock Exchange, trading under the symbol LPS Jeffery Carbiener, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Fidelity National Information Services at the time of the divide, became the first President and Chief Executive Officer of LPS. LPS became a publicly traded company in July 2008 and thereafter became involved in several high profile controversies which severely damaged the reputation of the company. The 2010 robo-signing scandal exposed mass forgeries and other unethical behavior that was occurring within the company and continued thereafter. In addition to the federal government, states such as Nevada began filing legal proceedings against employees of the company. The consequences of these business practices were featured in an episode of 60 Minutes. Eventually LPS settled with the federal government and other states but not before their brand was destroyed in the marketplace. On March 14, 2011, the Company's subsidiary, LPS Mortgage Processing Solutions, Inc., acquired PCLender.com, Inc. (PCLender.com).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=LPS acquires PCLender to expand reach to small mortgage lenders )〕 In May 2012, Constellation Software Inc. acquired the assets of the Local Government Solutions division of the Company.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Constellation Software Inc.
