Business Outlook

Pros

Old-school company with a new vision Possibly most-nimble of the three major bureaus in US Great market in need of disruption, and company shows early signs of "getting it". This will let it fend off coming market consolidation and compression for the core data products - for a while.

Cons

Central command-and-control means acquisition offices and global locations are less likely to have resources to innovate. Slower than fintechs and some competitors to embrace newest frameworks - still focused on large tools, large platforms. You will not learn the latest techniques here, but you will learn how to serve the largest financial services companies with solid tools.
