Despite the debt crisis in Europe and other shocks experienced by the world economy, the company MoneyGram International notes the increase in the money transfer market. Technology continues to play a key role in increasing MoneyGram transaction speed, automating and streamlining processes, and creating new functionality. In the city of San Salvador representatives of MoneyGram and Citibank announced a new regional project, which will provide money transfer services in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. As part of the 2008 Recapitalization, our wholly owned subsidiary, MoneyGram Payment Systems Worldwide, Inc., issued Goldman Sachs $500.0 million of senior secured second lien notes with a 10-year maturity. At the heart of MoneyGram is trust and reliability of customers. You can quickly send and receive money, as money transfers usually come to the recipient within 10 minutes. Until 2004, the owners of MoneyGram were Viad Corp and Travelers Express Company Inc. What are the main benefits of money transfers by MoneyGram?
