Due to regulatory requirements and consumer demand in Germany and France, MoneyGram opened company stores in both countries. On March 7, 2011, MoneyGram entered into a Recapitalization Agreement with THL, as the holder of all of the B Stock, and Goldman Sachs, as the holder of all of the B-1 Stock. MoneyGram's total revenue for the 2nd quarter of 2012 was $ 330.1 million, having been increased on 7% compared to $ 310 million in Q2 2011. Understanding that being in another country, you may not be fluent in the local language, that's why MoneyGram always tries to talk to you in your native language. MoneyGram agents are located - in post offices, bank offices, supermarkets, and even travel agencies. MoneyGram offers an efficient, fast and secure way to send money around the world. Until 2004, the owners of MoneyGram were Viad Corp and Travelers Express Company Inc. The Global Funds Transfer segment is the primary segment of MoneyGram, providing money transfer and bill payment services to consumers, who are often unbanked or underbanked.
