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.

If you’re anything like the millions of people who counted down the hours until the Breaking Bad series finale, then you too were sitting on the edge of your seat waiting to see how it would all end. But now that it’s all over, what do we have to keep the memories of a show that’s captivated us for the last five years? Fans of the show don’t have to look too far to answer that question, as vehicles used during filming are now up for auction through ScreenBid, the world’s best source for certified authentic, screen-used Hollywood memorabilia and collectibles. Experian Automotive has also joined in the effort to preserve the show’s history, as it’s providing complimentary AutoCheck vehicle history reports on most of the Breaking Bad vehicles up for auction through the ScreenBid website. The AutoCheck reports give bidders access to detailed insights into each vehicle’s history prior to its casting on the show. With this extra layer of information, those looking to take home a piece of Breaking Bad history will be able to set expectations for their potential purchase. Some of the vehicles up for auction include Walt’s infamous 2004 Pontiac Aztek, Skyler’s 1991 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jesse’s 1982 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, among others. Breaking Bad fans have until Monday, Oct. 7 to bid on any of the priceless memories up for auction. To view a full list of the items, visit www.screenbid.com.
Today Experian announced five high-level appointments to its North American Credit Services group. Filling these crucial leadership roles are five seasoned women who have a proven track record of success with Experian. These women include: Genevieve Juillard, President, Consumer Information Services Hiq Lee, President, Business Information Services Laura DeSoto, Sr. Vice President of Marketing, Business Information Services Michele Pearson, Sr. Vice President of Indirect Sales, Credit Services and Decision Analytics Robin Norris, Chief Financial Officer, Credit Services While this may read like a typical senior appointment announcement, I believe that it is much more important than that. Being a woman with nearly 20 years of working in a variety of industries, this is an announcement that personally resonates with me. These women have earned their places in an industry in which many may argue is predominately led by men. I have had the opportunity to work with all of these women at one point or another (some more than others) and have seen first-hand the talented, smart and inspiring women that they are. Many of them have children and have managed to juggle their work/family balance while still maintaining their extensive grasp on the credit industry and steadily climbing the corporate ladder with elegance and grace. I’m a member of the PR group here at Experian and while it’s part of my job to promote news, it is not necessarily my job to create a post like this one. I wanted to personally share this post because the diverse workplace and cultivation of growth we have at Experian is something that I feel strongly about. You can read more about all five of these women here and learn more about what they are tasked with in these new and challenging roles.
Most people will tell you that they’re extremely proud when their hometown or current city accomplishes something. Hometown pride is why people are diehard fans for the local professional or college sports teams. Knowing that their city shines bright in any light, gives people a good feeling inside. With that said, people in the New York Metro area should have a strong sense of pride in how their businesses are performing. According to Experian’s Q2 Metro Business Pulse analysis, which looks at the top metropolitan areas in four key business credit categories, businesses in the New York area had the lowest average bankruptcy rates in the quarter, at just 0.28 percent. Those in the Nassau, NY; Baton Rouge, La; Honolulu; and Miami areas also have reason to be excited, as their businesses rounded out the top five with the lowest rates in this category. Another group of people who have reason to celebrate are those who live in the San Francisco area. Businesses there paid their bills an average of 3.2 days beyond contracted terms (DBT), more than 2.5 days less than the national average of 5.7 DBT. Businesses in the Omaha, Neb.; New York; Seattle; and Milwaukee metro areas also finished paying their bills faster than the national average. On the flipside, businesses in the Fort Myers, Fla. region took the longest to pay their bills, with businesses paying 18 days beyond contracted terms. The Orlando, Fla. Las Vegas; Miami; and Fort Lauderdale, Fla. metro areas rounded out the bottom five slow payers. The analysis also showed that all metro areas in the top five of business delinquency rates were well below the national average of 9.64 percent. Salt Lake City area businesses had the lowest business delinquency rates in Q2 at 0.92 percent, followed by Boise City, Idaho (1.62 percent); Houston (2.19 percent); San Diego (3.13 percent); and Tucson, Ariz. (3.17 percent). Conversely, businesses in the Miami metro area had the highest delinquency rate of 44.72 percent, followed by Fort Myers, Fla.; Orlando, Fla.; Cincinnati; and Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
