Total revenue in Latin America was US$1,001m,
up 21% at constant exchange rates, with organic
revenue growth of 14%. The difference relates to the
acquisitions of Virid Interatividade Digital (acquired
July 2011) and Computec (completed November 2011).
Region:
Latin America
Credit Services
At constant exchange rates, total
revenue growth in Credit Services
was 17%, with organic revenue growth
of 12%. We delivered good growth
despite a tough prior year comparable
and softer conditions in the Brazilian
economy. For the year, we delivered
double-digit growth across consumer
and business information activities in
Brazil, as we introduced new sources
of negative data from our partnership
with the CNDL retail association and
as we expanded into new customer
segments such as telecommunications,
automotive and insurance. As expected,
revenue from digital certificates
declined in the second half of the year,
as we lapped the prior year comparative.
Our bureaux in Colombia and Peru
performed strongly.
Decision Analytics
Total and organic revenue growth
was 39% at constant exchange rates,
reflecting growth in scoring, analytics,
fraud prevention and software sales
across the region. We also saw an
increased contribution from consultancy
projects, as clients prepare for the
introduction of positive data.

“Our region continues to deliver very good growth. We’re gaining
clients in new customer segments from telecommunications
and insurance through to automotive. At the same time, we’re
continuing to expand our market presence in Colombia and
Peru with the introduction of new fraud prevention and digital
marketing products. The advent of positive credit bureau data in
Brazil opens the door for us to develop new innovative products
for our clients in the future.”
