Equifax Response to La Presse Article

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - Nov. 23, 2012) - Statements made in today's La Presse newspaper contain baseless allegations about Equifax Canada, states Tom Carroll, media spokesperson for Equifax Canada.

The article references an Equifax employee and alleges that "there is a major risk of information leakage" by this employee.

We advise that this employee is not permitted to access, view, or modify any consumer or commercial credit data.

We consider the allegations in the article concerning any alleged improper disclosure of credit information to be without merit.
