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. From embracing AI to enhancing our digital workplace experience, we’ll continue to push forward and listen to our people every step of the way.

Greater transparency in buy now, pay later activity is key to helping consumers build their credit histories and supporting responsible lending. We have members of the military right now right out of high school and there’s not a lot of experience managing their own money. They’re quickly thrust into a place where they don’t have a support system to do that.

How can I improve my credit score? That’s a question thousands of consumers ask Experian every day. This question is asked even more frequently now that lenders are sending an estimated 120 million credit-score disclosures each year to consumers when they are denied credit or are offered terms that are less favorable than those offered to others. These score disclosures provide consumers with basic information about the score used in a transaction and direct them to the national credit bureaus if they have any questions. However, when consumers ask Experian how they can improve their credit standing, it’s difficult to respond in an easy and consumer-friendly way. The difficulty arises because, although we want to help, the Credit Repair Organizations Act (CROA) puts substantial roadblocks between credit bureaus and consumers.
Just a little over a week ago, I was in New Orleans surrounded by interesting, engaging and financially-savvy people with a common interest.
All of these people were brought together for FinCon Expo, which took place from September 18-21. It was not only a tremendous financial media community networking event, it was an opportunity to learn, grow and find inspiration.
From the Experian perspective, it was an opportunity to further build and focus on our social channels as a way to reach consumers and provide education and dialog around credit and financial empowerment. The two-day conference featured an expo hall where one could score some great information (along with some cool swag), keynote sessions that were led by powerful speakers like Jeff Goins, Farnoosh Torabi and Chris Ducker, and a full daily schedule packed with educational sessions and panel discussions (and of course, a lot of beignets served along the way).
The power of data is good.
Couple it with analytics and it becomes great.
Derive real and tangible insight from this process, and you are left with a very potent tool to affect real change and do a lot of good in the process.
At Experian, we have deep experience harnessing the power of data, in fact, we have been doing it since 1897. Using our insights to help merchants and consumers by providing an annual credit reference directory, we were using “big data” before big data was a buzz word.
