Appointments

Global information and insights company TransUnion has appointed Madhusudan Kejriwal as chief executive officer for UK and Europe.  

Kejriwal, who will officially join TransUnion on January 2nd 2025, started his career with Capital One in fraud & credit risk and subsequently spent 20 years working in a series of leadership roles at HSBC, including EVP, head of consumer products, propositions & analytics for HSBC Mexico and MD, group & UK head of cards and personal loans. 

Having led TransUnion’s European business as interim UK and Europe CEO for the last 12 months, Mark Horsey will remain in post until Kejriwal’s arrival. He will then remain with TransUnion, working in an advisory capacity across the organisation’s international business, including Europe.

“I believe we are at the start of the next industrial revolution, where data and insights will increasingly become the cornerstones of economic and social development,” said Kejriwal. “This makes it an exciting time for TransUnion as it is set to bring new products and services to the UK market. 

“Personally, I am really excited at the prospect of leading an organisation that is committed to helping our partner businesses benefit from an even greater level of data and insight and be their trusted advisor through this journey. 

“I am passionate about growth and developing teams, and I’m looking forward to building on the strong foundations laid by Mark and the team that will enable us to capitalise on the great opportunities ahead.”
