A credit bureau for emerging markets, with Burak Kilicoglu (CreditInfo)

<blockquote>When I was living in Denmark and working at Experian, my boss’s boss was a rockstar, you would never hear <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/burak-kilicoglu-5924792/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Burak Kilicoglu</a> ’s name mentioned without an associated compliment. And I wasn’t the only one to notice, so he was soon snapped up by <a href="https://creditinfo.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Creditinfo</a> to be their Director of Global Markets - a perfect-sounding guest for this show, right? Unfortunately, though I tried, I never managed to get Burak on…</blockquote><p><br></p><br><p>That’s how I introduced my episode with <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-randall-bb4497/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Paul Randall</a>, CEO of <a href="https://chronicle.creditinfo.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Creditinfo</a> but I’m pleased to say, it is no longer true. Because in this episode of HTLMTS, I’m sitting down with Burak himself to chat about data as a route to improved access to credit in emerging markets, about lending to SMEs, and about what it means to react quickly in volatile markets. </p><p>Creditinfo can be found at <a href="https://creditinfo.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://creditinfo.com/</a> or, as Burak mentioned, if you want to start a conversation with one of the team, their contact info is here <a href="https://creditinfo.com/about-us/our-group-management/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://creditinfo.com/about-us/our-group-management/</a> </p><br><p><br></p><p>They are also on LinkedIn <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/creditinfo-group/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/company/creditinfo-group/</a> (from which you’ll find links to the individual country pages)</p><br><p><br></p><p>The ESG data project he mentioned is explained in more detail here: <a href="https://chronicle.creditinfo.com/2022/10/24/creditinfo-launches-esg-data-platform/" rel
