Description: TRU TransUnion January 02, 2026

TransUnion (NYSE:TRU) is a global consumer-credit reporting firm that delivers risk-management and information-services solutions through two operating segments: U.S. Markets and International. The U.S. segment supplies credit reporting, analytics, identity-verification, debt-recovery, and a suite of fintech-oriented products to financial institutions, insurers, retailers, telecoms, and public-sector entities, while also offering consumer-facing services such as credit monitoring and identity protection. The International segment provides comparable credit-reporting, analytics, and risk-management tools to customers in financial services, retail, insurance, automotive, and communications markets across more than 30 countries.

Key metrics that shape TransUnion’s outlook include FY 2023 revenue of roughly $7.5 billion (≈5 % YoY growth) and a diversified earnings mix, with U.S. operations contributing about 70 % of total revenue. The broader U.S. credit-reporting market is estimated at $30 billion, driven by rising fintech adoption and stricter regulatory demands for data accuracy and consumer protection. Macro-economic drivers such as the Federal Reserve’s interest-rate policy and employment trends directly affect credit-card usage and loan origination volumes, which in turn influence TransUnion’s data-generation volume and pricing power.
