Money orders and official checks by MoneyGram continue their steady performance and expanded line of bill payment services deliver excellent results. Last year, MoneyGram business in the CIS and Eastern Europe took priority positions to increase the number of branches in comparison with other regions - were opened new four thousand branches.
