We’re helping people from racial and ethnic minority groups understand their finances and help improve their credit. We’ve reached more than 4.6 million people this year through this U.S.-based partnership. To reinforce this commitment, Experian COO Craig Boundy joined the HOPE Global Board of Advisors in April 2021.
The year 2020 was a year many of us will never forget. As we continue to navigate this pandemic, Experian® has taken a stance to help those in need. In an effort to empower vulnerable consumers across the globe, especially those further marginalized by COVID-19, we launched United for Financial Health. This effort will help preserve housing through the Home Preservation Grant, support small businesses, and offer career and higher education development programs. Stay tuned as we continue to partner with some amazing nonprofit organizations to bring the United for Financial Health initiative to life across America. We’re just getting started.
As part of its mission to encourage people from low-income backgrounds to make saving a habit, SaverLife in the U.S. has used our financial education resources to reach 384,000 people with tailored content offering guidance on improving their credit profiles.
Fostering small business recovery from the economic shock of COVID-19 in Brazil, Serasa Experian and Sebrae created an online financial education and business management content platform, reaching 4.6 million people since March 2021.
Half of working adults in the UK have low numeracy skills. We supported National Numeracy’s Number Confidence Week to help people improve their numeracy confidence and empower them to manage their money better. The program has supported 168,000 people so far.
The Mix is the United Kingdom’s leading digital support service for people under 25. We’re the lead supporter of its new online Money Hub, which aims to support ethnic minorities with financial education. This effort has reached over 660,000 people so far.
“Experian is uniquely positioned to empower consumers to improve their financial lives, gain access to credit, safeguard their identity, save money and improve their financial knowledge. Everyone deserves access to essential financial health resources. Through our United for Financial Health program, we are able to Create a Better Tomorrow for all by using our resources to get information to those who might not know this help exists.”
