(Reuters) – British credit data firm Experian Plc said on Wednesday it expects its annual organic revenue to grow between 4% and 6% on the back of steady demand from businesses and consumers.
Analysts were expecting the company to forecast a revenue growth of around 5.8%, according to company-compiled estimates.
Experian has benefited as Britain’s lenders seek more data on the finances of potential and existing customers amid still-high inflation.
The company’s key customers include banks, non-traditional lenders and insurance providers, which use its credit reports and scores to analyse and make decisions around credit risk, fraud prevention and lending terms.
