Experian to make companies' credit moves safer overseas

Experian, the leading global financial information services company, said it plans to increase investment in the countries and regions related to the Belt and Road Initiative.

It said the increased investment, especially in the Middle East, would better serve Chinese companies by offering them credit authorization, helping them link to cross-border trade partners and preventing fraud in overseas markets.

"Chinese companies are confronted with multiple challenges when going out to develop cross-border trade," said Isaac Wang, general manager of credit services of Experian China.
