TransUnion is a global information and insights company. Co. operates through three segments: U.S. Markets, International and Consumer Interactive. The U.S. Markets segment provides consumer reports, actionable insights and analytics to businesses. These businesses use its services to engage and acquire customers, assess consumer ability to pay for services, identify cross-selling opportunities, measure and manage debt portfolio risk, collect debt, verify consumer identities and mitigate fraud risk. The International segment provides services similar to its U.S. Markets segment to businesses in select regions outside the U.S.. The TRU average annual return since 2015 is shown above.
The Average Annual Return on the TRU average annual return since 2015 page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annualized return over the past ten years (or specified start date) for a given investment
(up to the end of prior trading session recorded). Arguably, choosing ten years for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand provides a sufficiently long window
to capture long-term trends.
Thus, researching Average Annual Returns is good practice for investors — whether TRU average annual return since 2015 or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's annualized return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the TRU average annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
