Dollar Financial Corp Changes Name to DFC Global Corp.

Dollar Financial DLLR today announced that it has changed its legal name to DFC Global Corp. A new logo accompanies the change. The Company will continue to trade on the NASDAQ stock exchange under its current ticker symbol “DLLR”. Commenting on the name change, Jeff Weiss, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “The new name reflects the transformation of our Company from its origin in 1979 in the United States to what is now a global enterprise, operating in seven countries across North America, the United Kingdom and Europe. We feel this broad geographic expansion combined with our expanded product portfolio, which now encompasses secured pawn lending, consumer lending, small business advances, debit cards, gold purchasing, money transfer, check cashing, foreign exchange and many others, necessitated a modification to our corporate identity to more accurately reflect our continuing global expansion strategy and our diversified operating platforms.”
