 remittance agents on the basis of value, service, quality, technical and operational differences, commission structure and marketing efforts. As a philosophy, we sell credible solutions to our sending agents, not discounts or higher commissions, as is typical for the industry. We compete for money remittance customers on the basis of trust, convenience, service, efficiency of outlets, value, enhanced technology and brand recognition.

Current political conditions in the United States have resulted in high levels of volatility in the market as well as uncertainty as to the economic and financial impacts of recent economic, trade and immigration enforcement actions taken by the current administration on the U.S., as well as foreign countries, including those that are a destination for money transfers or in which we currently operate.

Money remittance businesses have continued to be subject to strict legal and regulatory requirements, and we continue to focus on and regularly review our compliance programs. In connection with these reviews, and in light of regulatory complexity and
