* US only
During the year, Experian expanded
its global reach and now has a
Marketing Services presence in
major economies around the world,
including the UK, US, Germany,
France, China and Japan. This
enables the Group to provide
marketing solutions to global
companies.
In the US, large marketing
competitors for traditional direct
marketing services include Acxiom
and Harte-Hanks. Competition
elsewhere tends to be fragmented
and specialised.
Experians direct-to-consumer, credit
information business is the clear
market leader in both the US and UK.
In the US, competition is provided by
Equifax, TransUnion, FICO and other
smaller specialists, but Experian
is more than twice the size of any
of these competitors. In the UK,
competition is provided by Equifax
and smaller niche suppliers.

manage and protect their personal
credit les, as well as to make

decisions. Credit reports are

protect themselves from identity
theft. Its lead generation services
