"Business Execution Outsourcing model will help banks, financial services and insurance institutions focus on their core activities of product development, marketing and risk management, while leaving the repeatable operational aspects to be managed by our domain-experts. This will enable them to free up their resources for more strategic endeavours within the organisations, and also help in lowering the cost of managing IT infrastructure through improved productivity and efficiencies,"

"To manage their business value chain, these dynamic organisations are looking for 'partners' that combine strong domain expertise with technology solutions implementation experience which goes beyond mere 'outsourcing'. When combined with our IDC in India, the Business Execution Outsourcing model is an extremely compelling proposition for clients in the region," Mr Padmanabhan added.
