For the past several years, Experian has been on a journey to help drive financial inclusion for millions of people around the world. This has required significant changes in how we operate, who we partner with, and the products and solutions we offer —and with those changes comes a renewed sense of purpose. What we do and the actions we take have the potential to improve lives.  We are actively seeking out unresolved problems and creating products and technologies that will help transform the way businesses operate and consumers thrive in today’s society. But we know we can’t do it alone. That’s why over the last year, we have built out an entire team of account executives and other support staff that are fully dedicated to developing and supporting partnerships with leading fintech companies. We’ve made significant strides that will help us pave the way for the next generation of lending, while improving the financial health of more people around the world. Earlier this week, I attended the FinovateSpring conference in San Francisco to speak with fintechs and financial institutions about ways to put financial health at the center of an organization’s plans to build trust, reach new customers and ultimately grow business. We are developing platforms that are designed to play to the strengths of fintechs and disrupt the industry. In the past, we have looked at unresolved problems and asked ‘why?’ Today, with our fintech partners, we look at potential solutions to these unresolved challenges and say, ‘why not.’ As part of our concentration on fintech, Experian has made significant investments in alternative data, such as the game-changing Experian Boost platform, which was launched just two months ago and is already reshaping the way consumers gain access to credit. Since we launched Experian Boost, consumers across America have instantly increased their credit score by sharing their bill payment history for things like utilities, mobile phones and cable TV payments – payments which had never been factored into a credit score before. And, yes, this platform came to fruition as a result of a fintech partnership. We have partnered with fintechs in other powerful ways, too. Our new Ascend Analytical Sandbox – a first-of-its-kind data and analytics platform – gives companies instant access to more than 17 years of depersonalized credit data on more than 220 million U.S. consumers. This creates better opportunities for consumers by allowing our clients to provide more tailored solutions. It’s a great example of the power of analytics and we’re very proud of it. During our time at Finovate, we were able to engage in meaningful conversations with fintech leaders who were united in our goal of helping more consumers access the financial services they need. We’re more inspired than ever before to continue to build and explore strategic partnerships that will ultimately improve the lives of American consumers.

It gives me great pleasure to announce that Experian has won the Consensus Economics Forecast Accuracy Award 2018 for the UK. Our UK Economics Team was recognised for their high-quality research, their commitment to regular forecasts and their ability to identify most accurately the trends and levels of key indicators over the 24-month forecasting cycle. The Forecast Accuracy Award program recognises the achievements of a select group of expert country economic forecasters who have most accurately predicted the performance of GDP growth and Consumer Price Inflation for their targeted economies over a 24-month forecasting cycle. Experian were the most accurate UK forecaster out of pool of 36 organisations. Mohammed Chaudhri, Head of UK Macro Forecasting, said: “We’re thrilled to win this award. We spent a lot of time analysing the UK economy following the referendum vote in 2016 and, at the time, many forecasters were expecting an immediate recession. However, we felt that the UK economy would prove more resilient in the coming years. We are pleased that our forecast for 2018 was so close to the actual development.”  The award underlines the wealth of knowledge across the UK Economics Team, with over 30 years of macro-economic forecasting experience to their name. The accuracy of our economic forecasts is a real benefit when understanding how the UK economy will impact businesses in the future. By embedding our forecasts into the decision-making process organisations can embrace the opportunities presented by an ever-changing economics landscape. I’d like to congratulate Mohammed and his team on a well-deserved award win, along with all the other winners from across the globe. To find out more, click here.

The following is written by Colin Grieves, Managing Director of Targeting, at Experian. There are many reasons why an advert might catch your attention – maybe it’s because of a celebrity endorsement, clever catchphrase, or a witty one-liner that catches you off guard when you’re waiting for your programme to return after the break. If there has been an advert that has particularly stuck in your mind, those behind the marketing at organisations will tell you it’s no accident. Experian works with a range of organisations to help them understand which people are likely to be most interested in. So, how can you find out what information marketers use to understand you? Experian launched the Consumer Information Portal, or CIP for short, back in April 2018 to help people see what data we have access to, but also to give you the chance to let us know if you want to stop your data being used for marketing. The CIP also explains why our work in marketing can be a good thing for consumers and society as a whole. We’ve recently made improvements to the website to give you an even greater insight. You can now visit our website and promptly check whether your personal data is present on specific marketing channels, what sectors it’s used by, and where we obtained the data from. For the first time, you can also see with which marketing profile your postcode is associated here. This gives you a real flavour of how marketers may view you and the type of people most likely to live in your neighbourhood, to make sure the messages you receive are as relevant as possible. We’re planning to keep adding more new features and information to the CIP, as we keep our promise to deliver transparent and responsible marketing. Drawing on expertise across our business to improve your experience when you use the CIP, as well as looking at new, clearer ways to explain how we work with data in our marketing services. Watch this space for further updates.
