Creditinfo and Equifax announce European strategic partnership to strengthen business resilience against digital fraud

Creditinfo Group and Equifax UK today announced a strategic partnership to deliver fraud detection capabilities for Creditinfo clients in 10 countries across Europe.

Creditinfo customers now have access to the Equifax Kount® 360 global platform, which utilises Creditinfo’s local market intelligence to analyse billions of real-time data signals – including email, IP, and device intelligence. This integration enables European financial institutions and digital businesses to instantly identify and block sophisticated threats such as malicious bots, credential stuffing, and account takeovers, enabling the reduction of fraud-related financial losses. This experience is designed to be seamless and friction-free and provides advanced, real-time protection against escalating cyber fraud.

The combination of Creditinfo’s regional expertise with Equifax global data, analytics, and technology will help support trusted digital growth across the region.

Satrajit Saha, Global CEO at Creditinfo Group, said: “Our partnership with Equifax is an important step in our strategy to strengthen digital trust and resilience across the markets we serve. We are starting with fraud because the need is immediate, but the opportunity is much broader. Together, we can help our customers build safer, smarter and more inclusive digital financial ecosystems.”

David Bernard, CEO at Equifax UK&I, said: “Digital fraud knows no borders, and combating it requires an equally borderless, data-driven response. By pairing Equifax global analytics infrastructure with Creditinfo’s deep local market intelligence, we are giving financial institutions and digital businesses the advanced tools they need to help detect and mitigate sophisticated threats early. Our focus is about more than just risk management; it is about establishing a foundation of trust that allows digital economies to grow safely and inclusively.”

Equifax UK and Creditinfo are exploring opportunities to extend these advanced capabilities into potential future territories, including Africa and the Middle East.
