Credit Acronyms eg GW, DV, CA, CRA what are they, where can I find all of these

Hi everyone,

I see a lot of acronyms on this forum and have no idea what they are referring to.

CMRR

CA - I think this means Collection Agency

CRA - I think this means Credit Reporting Agency

Can someone tell me what these acronyms are.

Is there a place which has these acronyms
