a close up of a paper

Bloomberg reports that Western Union has made an offer to buy MoneyGram (see their full article here). It’s too early to know what effect that would have on money orders and MS if it went through. At this point, it is just an offer and it is worth nothing that it is highly possible that Western Union will be turned down at the point of sale.
