Experian Ventures

Experian Ventures is the venture investment arm backed by Experian, one of the world's leading credit reporting agencies. It invests in technology startups through two vehicles: a core fund and a seed fund. The firm does not disclose founding year, fund size or typical check size publicly.

The investment focus sits close to the parent group's operating capabilities. Technical domains of interest include data analytics, credit risk analytics, fraud detection and prevention, decisioning automation, data processing and analysis, identity protection technology, predictive analytics and software platforms. Sector coverage spans financial services, lending, consumer financial services, insurance, automotive and healthcare.

Experian's own business provides the strategic backdrop: the group sells credit risk management solutions, marketing targeting tools built on its data assets, an automated decisioning platform, and fraud prevention technology to lenders and businesses, alongside free credit monitoring, identity theft protection and credit building tools for consumers. It employs approximately 23,300 people across 32 countries, with headquarters in Dublin, Ireland, and states a mission of unlocking the power of data to expand access to credit and support consumer financial health.
