A new era of accuracy in decisioning

I am delighted and proud to be part – as many other great colleagues – in the achievement of a significant milestone in our company’s journey: the acquisition of Boniversum, a subsidiary of Creditreform, and the strengthening of our strategic partnership with Creditreform.

This collaboration not only enhances our presence in the German market but also underscores our commitment to delivering superior data, analytics, and technology solutions to our clients.

The integration of Boniversum into Experian’s operations brings together extensive expertise in consumer information, paving the way for innovative services in identity verification and risk assessment. This move is set to provide businesses with more accurate tools for identity checks, enabling informed decisions and secure transactions. Consumers, in turn, will benefit from enhanced protection against identity theft and credit decisions based on comprehensive data.

This partnership builds upon a longstanding international collaboration between Experian and Creditreform. In today’s volatile markets and uncertain economic landscapes, our alliance aims to deliver a new level of data and service quality, contributing to the competitiveness of German enterprises. Notably, advancements in data-driven analytics, user-friendly platforms, and fraud prevention are expected to set new standards for market participants and the credit industry.

Our team has been instrumental in achieving this milestone. Their dedication and expertise have been pivotal in forging this partnership and will continue to drive our success as we embark on this new chapter. As we integrate Boniversum and collaborate closely with Creditreform, our collective efforts will unlock new opportunities and deliver exceptional value to our clients.

My heartfelt gratitude to every team member for their hard work and commitment. Together, we are poised to achieve remarkable success in the times ahead.
