We hosted over a 100 customers at Ignite Live 2020 in Mumbai, India on 12 February 2020. In a day long engagement, we had sessions on emerging trends and opportunities in the Indian credit market and presentations on Equifax’s global solutions for India - Ignite and Luminate. We also had panel discussions by industry leaders on the evolving lending landscape, using data for better decisioning and targeting the right customer in mass market lending.
