Update on proposed ClearScore acquisition
28 November 2018 - Experian is disappointed by the Provisional
Findings published today by the UK Competition and Markets
Authority ("CMA"). We continue to strongly believe that the
acquisition of ClearScore will have a positive impact on
competition, allowing Experian to help more consumers with their
finances by providing greater choice and convenience to them to
access personal finance products at the best prices.
We also believe we will be able innovate more and better through
the combination of the parties' complementary assets and innovation
cultures. We will continue to engage constructively with the CMA
over the weeks ahead to seek to address its concerns ahead of
publication of the CMA's final report early in the new year.
