EXPN will provide risk management software to Portugal's Novabase SGPS, the two companies said in a statement.

No financial details were disclosed.



The Moroccan Central Bank, Bank Al-Maghrib, has signed a 25 year agreement with Experian to upgrade and run its Credit Bureau facilities in Morocco.

Some of the most important financial institutions in Morocco have taken stakes in Experian Morocco, including Attijari Wafa bank, BMCE, BMCI, SGBM and CNIA, a leading insurance company. Other important banking institutions are expected to follow suit.

Go with the flow:
All true but you missed out the price relative the ftse all-shares downtrend has been broken and looks like the retest has been succesful.So if your software allows it draw a line at around 20% there is a double top and she's having a third go. A break above that would suggest a run up may well be on the cards if its not started already. I shorted EXPN on that relaive strength double. My short entry price was 445p with a target of 400p I got stoped out on friday at 420p after the price recovered from 412p for the 3rd day on the trot another bullish sign. A move above 425p and I'll take a long bet with a target price of 460p where there is a gap.

[techanalyst] 13/2/2008 15:45

yaso go on say "good call on EXPN tech" go on it even fell from my 460p target price. Out now +27 got stopped out on the spike.

[yas0] 13/2/2008 13:29

I have tried to ascertain if there has been a note on EXPN today (it is the only thing I can attribute the rise to today), but as yet have not managed to unearth anyhting. If any readers (that excludes the numpties like Salb and Tech) have any idea about the same then let me know who has issued it. I shall then attempt to get hold of a copy, depending on where it emanates from.

[sllab101] 13/2/2008 10:31

f me,I forgot about that he also said something about eating a hat.cc has gone fulltime now yas you may be able to get his old job flipping bugers.

Yet ANOTHER big deal that Experian has lost out to GB Group (GBG) on and more testament to the fact that GB just quietly go out signing up big contracts without crowing about it. Again another illustration of how they let the numbers do the talking...

Seriously chaps - if you let this slip ou of your hands you only have yourselves to blame !


The Exchange Launches Electronic Identity Checking
Service Provided By GB Group
The Exchange, provider of e-services to over 25,500 financial intermediaries, has
today announced the launch of an electronic identity checking service, in
partnership with identity management specialists, GB Group.
The 'URU™' ID checking solution, jointly developed by GB Group and BT, is now integrated with
The Exchange's Exweb portal to allow users to cross check personal client details against a
range of population data sources* - including Electoral Roll and financial data supplied through
Callcredit, telephone and address data, deceased and 'gone away' files.
The service will also uniquely confirm the authenticity of common proofs of identity such as a
passport or utility bill. Advisers will then be provided with an instant pass or fail result, based on
scoring defined specifically for the adviser market and in full compliance with Joint Money
Laundering Steering Group (JMLSG) requirements. The new service will ensure that the process
of confirming an individual's identity is faster, more robust and far more efficient than traditional,
manual checks.
David Child, Managing Director, The Exchange explains:
"Identity verification is an essential element of the customer registration process so we are
delighted to be working with GB Group to offer our users this invaluable new service. By
accurately verifying client details against a number of databases, intermediaries can be more
confident than ever before that the individual is who they claim to be.
Alongside this peace of mind, using the electronic ID checking facility will also reduce the need
for paper copies of forms, along with driving licences, passports or utility bills to be stored onsite
or posted to providers - proving a time and money-saving resource for all."
GB Group uses its advanced data matching technology to enable businesses to maximise the
value of their customer data, and importantly has helped reduce the cost of compliance in
financial institutions by as much as 70%. Its identity verification and management products and
services are underpinned by its unique ID3 matching technology, which powers ID verification
solutions that can confirm the identity of more than 800 million citizens world-wide. In the UK, the
URU application is already used by over 200 organisations including high street names such as
HBOS, Lloyds TSB, The RBS Group, O2, DSGi, HiFX and Chequepoint, William Hill, Betfair and
PartyGaming.
Rob Laurence, Managing Director, GB Group added:
"We have been working very closely with The Exchange to ensure that the process for signing
up new customers is exactly what advisers and intermediaries need. We are confident that the
addition of URU into the Exweb portal will complement the straight-through processing of all new
customer applications, reducing the costs of compliance for advisers and ensuring a much faster
and more customer-friendly service for all."
*There will be a small charge for using the electronic identity checking service

[yas0] 13/2/2008 10:19

Well let me put it this way - if this hits 550p before it touches 350p then I shall never post on advfn again.

The gracious fellow has never got it wrong when he has made such calls in the past, and this is not set to change that run.

[williebiz] 13/2/2008 10:13

It's a long way to go but only a decent month or so away IMV.

[noon] 13/2/2008 10:11

550p is a long way to go unless a bid comes.
otherwise take profit time.

buy it on aonther dip, if it dips.

[williebiz] 13/2/2008 10:06

Don't set your sights too low: first proper pause @ 550p

[sllab101] 13/2/2008 09:27
