Adam was also previously Chair of Whitbread PLC and ASOS plc, and a
Non-Executive Director of Sony Group Corporation.

Alison Brittain, Senior Independent Director, said: "Following a comprehensive
and rigorous search process, the Board is delighted to appoint Adam as Chair.
He brings extensive experience of leading large, complex organisations and a
strong track record in data-driven and technology-enabled businesses. Adam's
strategic judgement, extensive Chair experience and measured approach position
him well to support the Company's continued growth, and the Board looks
forward to the perspective he will bring to Experian during the next phase of
its development."

Brian Cassin, Chief Executive Officer, said: "On behalf of the Board and
everyone at Experian, I would like to thank Mike Rogers for his significant
contribution over many years, both as Chair and previously as a Non-Executive
Director. His leadership has been instrumental in the Company's development,
and we are grateful for his guidance and support.

"We are very pleased to welcome Adam to the Board. He brings extensive
leadership and Board experience across large, international businesses, and
his insight will be valuable as we continue to execute our strategy and
deliver long-term growth."

Adam Crozier said: "I am delighted to be joining Experian at an important
stage in its development. The Company has built a strong track record of
growth, underpinned by its data, technology and deep customer relationships,
and is well positioned to capitalise on the opportunities ahead. I look
forward to working with the Board and management team to support continued
successful execution of its strategy and delivery of long-term value for
stakeholders."

Mike Rogers, Chair, said: "It has been a privilege to serve on the Board of
Experian since 2017 and as Chair over the past seven years, and I am pleased
to welcome Adam to the Board, and as my successor as Chair. The Company is
well positioned for the future, and I am confident it will continue to deliver
sustained success. I would like to thank my fellow Board members for their
support and wish Experian every success in the years ahead."
