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. In due time MoneyGram separated from the Western Union and became an independent brand. Since going public two and a half years ago, MoneyGram has made great strides by pouring energy and resources into several critically important areas for business. For the company MoneyGram is important not only to provide customers with an easy and convenient way to carry out money transfers and support their families at home, but also to help them as much as possible to adapt to the foreign countries. Commission income on remittances and other revenues of MoneyGram in the 2nd quarter 2012 increased by 10% compared to the same period last year and 13% in the base currency. MoneyGram financial results were driven by money transfer business, which delivered more than 40 percent growth in transaction volume.
