Western Union's Q2 revenue fell 1% to $1 billion, impacted by slower Americas retail business due to declining migration. The delay in acquiring Intermex also postponed expected benefits. CEO Devin McGranahan highlighted challenges from changing immigration policies reducing customer flow and said the company is accelerating cost cuts and investing in digital and AI to improve efficiency and reduce manual work. Regulatory approval for the Intermex deal is still pending but remains optimistic. Western Union aims to cut 20% of discretionary operations and enhance AI adoption to lower costs and friction in its global money transfer business.
