Experian integrates Danish and Dutch data

Global information services firm Experian said it has extended its international coverage for identity verification with the integration of comprehensive and reliable data from Denmark and the Netherlands to its global ID verification platform.

Danish CPR information (personal tax numbers) has been added to the Prove-ID platform as well as name, address and DOB validation for 100 per cent of the population.

Data from the Netherlands includes credit reference details which cover 85 per cent of the Dutch population over the age of 18.

With the addition of these two countries, Experian now enables its cross-border clients to ensure authenticity of a customer’s personal details in seven markets which include the US, UK, Germany, Sweden and Canada

David Campbell, Director of ID & Fraud for EMEA, Experian Decision Analytics, comments: “Building on our existing expertise in fraud prevention and identity verification, the addition of Denmark and the Netherlands to our global fraud identity platform demonstrates our focus on delivering a truly international service, checking customer identity in real-transaction time. The breadth and depth of our data is unparalleled and this means we can enable businesses across the globe to comply with global requirements, acquire customers quickly and easily and, at the same time, prevent fraudsters from realising any material gains.”
