The Hope Now Alliance, a group created at the behest of Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson last year, expects to modify about 2 million mortgages next year, according to a report to be released today in Washington. The group, which includes JPMorgan Chase & Co., Citigroup Inc. and Bank of America Corp., also plans a new campaign to boost participation in the program.

Hope Now projects 950,000 loan modifications for 2008, including 208,000 for the month of November. Including repayment plans and other assistance, the group estimates that about 2.2 million foreclosures will have been prevented this year, bringing to 3 million the total averted since the program began in 2007.
