Open Score opportunity Equifax Australia recently launched Open Score for renters and formed a strategic partnership with Occubuy to help renters demonstrate mortgage readiness. This creates a sales opening to upsell credit readiness analytics, rent payment data integration, and mortgage-preparedness solutions to lenders, fintechs, and proptech platforms seeking to expand credit access.
ESG and data The introduction of The National Catastrophe and ESG Dataset signals demand for structured, reliable ESG data and catastrophe insights. This presents cross-sell opportunities to financial institutions and corporates needing standardized ESG reporting, risk modeling, and benchmarking capabilities.

There is potential to offer advanced regulatory reporting tools, compliance analytics, and surveillance solutions to banks, lenders, and fintechs navigating reforms.
Data partnerships Strategic data partnerships with Snowflake, The Trade Desk, and advertising technology ecosystems indicate strong interest in activating finance-based audience segments and live data access. Sales opportunities exist to extend data-as-a-service, audience targeting, and real-time decisioning capabilities to advertisers, agencies, and martech platforms.
