At Experian, we are continually innovating and using technology to find solutions to global issues, modernize the financial services industry and increase financial access for all. Heading 1 At Experian, we are continually innovating and using technology to find solutions to global issues, modernize the financial services industry and increase financial access for all. Our deep commitment to social and financial inclusion is reflected in our workplace culture, our partnerships and our efforts to break down the barriers to financial equity. Our initiatives are dedicated to getting tools, resources and information to underserved communities so that consumers can best understand and improve their financial health. Trust is foundational to everything we do at Experian. It’s how we build products people rely on, how we serve clients and consumers, and how we work together every day. That focus makes this year’s recognition from Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For List even more meaningful. For 2026, Experian soared to ranking No. 38—our highest placement ever and a more than 20‑spot jump from last year. This marks our seventh consecutive year on the list. What makes this honor especially significant is how it’s earned. The ranking is based entirely on employee feedback from the Great Place to Work survey. Our people told us they feel welcomed, trusted to do their jobs, respected for who they are, and valued for the impact they make. They shared that Experian is a place where people can be themselves and count on one another. That internal trust matters externally. When employees trust their workplace, they do their best work. That translates directly into the trust our consumers and clients place in us—to handle data responsibly, deliver insights with integrity, and help people and businesses move forward with confidence. Our way of working has earned Experian the 2026 BIG Innovation Award for its AI-powered Experian-Assistant for Model Risk management, Top Score in the 2026 Equality 100, Best Place to Work for Disability Inclusion, and as one of the 25 World’s Best Workplaces™ 2025. This recognition reflects the culture our teams continue to build across North America—one grounded in trust, accountability, and purpose. We’re proud of the progress we’ve made, and we know there’s always room to go further. Thank you to everyone who places their trust in Experian. We don’t take it lightly. Heading 2 At Experian, we are continually innovating and using technology to find solutions to global issues, modernize the financial services industry and increase financial access for all. Our deep commitment to social and financial inclusion is reflected in our workplace culture, our partnerships and our efforts to break down the barriers to financial equity. Heading 3 Trust is foundational to everything we do at Experian. It’s how we build products people rely on, how we serve clients and consumers, and how we work together every day. That focus makes this year’s recognition from Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For List even more meaningful. Heading 4 When I began my career as a software engineer, I was captivated by solving problems with code and creativity. Over time, I realized what energized me most was not just the technology, but the people it serves. I wanted to understand why I was building something and see its real-world impact. That perspective led me to product management, where I could combine technology, empathy, and innovation to solve meaningful problems for consumers. At Experian, that mindset shapes what we call our Consumer First AI strategy. Consumer First AI means meeting people where they are in their financial journey. Some are building credit for the first time. Others are recovering from setbacks. Many are exploring new opportunities, planning for major milestones, or working toward long-term goals. Each person’s path is different. Consumer First AI is about using technology not just to provide information, but to guide consumers with clarity and relevance based on what they are seeking in that moment. Heading 5 At its core, EVA makes financial information accessible and actionable. Experian members can ask questions, receive personalized financial insights, and potentially take action in real time. Whether freezing or unfreezing their Experian credit file, managing membership features, or exploring tailored offers via third-party lenders in Experian Marketplace, they can do it within a seamless conversational experience designed to simplify decisions. Our latest evolution expands beyond credit insights to provide clearer visibility into spending and cash flow. Through connected permissioned financial accounts, members can track spending trends, recurring expenses, and changes over time. EVA also can deliver tailored recommendations to help reduce unnecessary spending, manage subscriptions, and better plan for monthly obligations. By translating complex financial data into practical next steps, EVA serves as an intelligent financial copilot. It helps people move from insight to action with confidence and supports smarter budgeting, saving, and borrowing decisions aligned with their goals and financial priorities Heading 6 This mission is deeply personal to me. I was born in the United States but spent my formative years in Taiwan, where credit was not part of everyday life. When I returned to the United States for college, I realized that being financially responsible did not automatically translate into having a strong credit profile. I was fortunate that credit did not stand in my way, but that uncertainty stayed with me and shaped my perspective. That experience fuels my passion for building tools like EVA. Financial health shapes where we live, what we can plan for, and how secure we feel. Yet managing money and credit can still feel complex or intimidating. EVA helps cut through that complexity by meeting people where they are and adapting in real time to their needs with guidance that feels clear and relevant. At Experian, our mission is bringing Financial Power to All™. EVA represents Consumer First AI in action by combining advanced artificial intelligence, human centered design, and a trusted data foundation to expand access to personalized financial tools and support greater financial inclusion. This milestone builds on our broader strategy to embed intelligent, trusted AI across the consumer ecosystem. Through continued advancements in EVA’s adaptive financial guidance and the launch of Experian Insurance Marketplace integrate with the ChatGPT platform, we are meeting consumers wherever they are with personalized insights and relevant financial opportunities delivered through conversational experiences. Gender Improved targeting and personalization: Demographic segmentation powers highly customized campaigns so you can cater to different income levels, family structures, job types, and so forth.

Simplicity and effectiveness: Demographic insights are immediately actionable and easy to implement, which gives you a great starting point for focused campaigns hfghf jkhjk

Consumer First AI: Building AI That Shows Up In Real Life Moments, Like Shopping For Insurance We believe financial decisions should feel empowering, not overwhelming. Choosing how to protect your family, planning your next move, building your future, these are personal milestones. Yet too often, the tools meant to help consumers navigate them create friction instead of clarity. We are changing that. Our Consumer-First AI strategy starts with a simple belief: technology should make life easier for people. We’re building AI-powered experiences that meet consumers where they are, cut through complexity, and provide guidance that feels intuitive, supportive, and genuinely helpful. Reimagining Insurance Shopping Through Conversation One example is the launch of our Experian Insurance Marketplace, a leading platform to find and compare auto insurance rates[i], within ChatGPT. Shopping for insurance has long been a frustrating process. Consumers jump from site to site, repeatedly entering information and trying to decode policy differences, often still unsure if they found the right coverage at the right price. Now the experience can begin with a simple question inside ChatGPT. Consumers now can start their journey with Experian and compare estimated rates from more than 35 leading insurance carriers in our network, receive clear coverage explanations, ask follow-up questions in real time, and seamlessly transition into the Experian experience to explore personalized savings and switch carriers. What once took hours across multiple websites can now begin in one guided interaction.
