At Experian, we often say our people are our biggest superpower – and today, I’m thrilled to share that this belief has been recognised once again. Experian has been named one of the 2025 World’s Best Workplaces™ by Fortune and Great Place to Work® for the second year in a row.
This achievement reflects the culture we’ve built together – one that’s welcoming, inclusive, and rooted belonging. It’s a celebration of every colleague who brings their whole self to work, who lifts others up, and who powers opportunities for our clients, consumers, and communities.
We’ve made it our mission to create a workplace where everyone feels included, respected, and empowered. That’s why we’re proud to have earned top scores on the Corporate Equality Index and the Disability Equality Index, and to be recognised with the Outie Award for Workplace Excellence and Belonging.
These recognitions matter. But what matters most is how our people experience life at Experian. Whether it’s collaborating, innovating, or growing through world-class development of products, services and contributing to our communities, our culture is designed to help everyone thrive.
We’ve also made bold commitments to career development. Initiatives like Global Careers Week, the AI-driven performance coach Nadia, and the NextGen Forum – a global leadership development programme for emerging talent from across our regions – give our people the resources to take charge of their growth and build a “One Experian” mindset.
Being named one of the World’s Best Workplaces is a moment to celebrate but also a reminder to keep aiming higher. The world of work is evolving fast, and so are we.

Title for the News Blog Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The recent wildfires in Los Angeles are now among the most destructive recorded in California’s history. Thousands of structures have been damaged or destroyed, and many families are facing the heartbreaking loss of their homes, businesses and personal belongings. The fires have also tragically claimed lives and caused significant injuries. In the wake of such devastation, the immediate priority for everyone is, of course, ensuring the safety and well-being of themselves and their loved ones. As communities come together to navigate this challenging time, we are committed to being a resource to consumers. Our hope is to help those impacted by the fires preempt or prevent potential impacts to their financial health and identity where possible. If you or someone you know has been impacted by the Los Angeles fires, here are some key points to keep in mind. 1. Safeguard Your Identity Natural disasters can unfortunately create opportunities for identity theft. Important documents containing personal information may be lost or scattered. According to the Federal Trade Commission, instances of identity theft have nearly tripled over the last decade and scammers often exploit chaotic situations and vulnerable consumers. Be Wary of Scammers: Sadly, following natural disasters, opportunistic fraudsters often deploy schemes tied to charity and donations, insurance, new financing, construction or clean up, and more. These perpetrators may lift and deploy tactics that were successful following natural disasters in other areas and deploy them to target those impacted by the LA wildfires. Stay vigilant against fraudsters who may try to steal your personal information or money through disaster-related schemes or offers that sound too good to be true. Use Free Credit Monitoring and Fraud Alerts: Take advantage of these services to keep an eye on your credit activity. If you notice anything suspicious, report it immediately to your bank or financial institution. Consider Freezing Your Credit: If your personal information has been compromised, freezing your credit with the three major credit reporting agencies can prevent new fraudulent credit applications. You can freeze your credit for free with Experian by clicking here or enrolling in its free app on your mobile device. 2. Contact Your Lenders In times of crisis, many financial institutions are willing to work with affected consumers. If you’re worried about paying your bills on time due to the fires, reach out to your mortgage, auto loan, and credit card companies as soon as possible. Your lenders can report accounts as deferred or in forbearance if you live in an area impacted by the fires. This means no late payments will be reported, allowing you to focus on immediate concerns. However, interest might continue to accrue on the balance, so be sure to understand the terms of any agreement. 3. Use Your Credit Report as a Financial Tool Tracking down contact information for each of your lenders can be overwhelming. Your credit report, which you can access for free at annualcreditreport.com or via the Experian website or its free app on your mobile device, can be a helpful starting point. While, understandably, protecting your credit history or identity may not be your immediate concern, taking a proactive approach could help prevent any or further damage to your financial health at a time when you need access to credit the most.
