In October, NACM CS celebrated a robust and prosperous relationship with Experian while attending the annual Experian Partner Advisory Council meeting. Our expertise in credit solutions was highlighted among those who attended. We collaborated on future Experian initiatives, heard from industry experts, and provided insights in the markets we serve. Experian has been a good partner to NACM CS members, and we look forward to sharing our expertise with all of you in the coming year.
