EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Outsourcing Trends in the FS Industry
3
The FS industry is
the largest user of
offshore services and
usage continues to
grow
Operating model
diversification
continues but overall
trend away from
captives
Increased location
diversification,
especially to
nearshore
For FS, India is still the dominant destination, particularly for ITO services, however,
Eastern Europe has become increasingly prevalent for ITO and BPO
Significant increase in use of nearshore sites in US (Florida, Carolina, Texas) and UK (N.
Ireland, Scotland) for processes considered high value or high risk in the BPO and ITO
space, or where data protection regulation prevents full offshoring
Emerging offshore centres in China, SE Asia, S America and Africa expected to play
more significant role in next 3-5 years as arbitrage is eroded by inflation for traditional sites
© Elix-IRR Partners LLP, 2010 Sources: Elix-IRR analysis, DataMonitor 2010, TPI 2009., press releases
Financial Services (FS) accounts for almost a third of all offshore services,
outsourced and captive
ITO and BPO still represent the bulk of the outsourcing activity, but the frequency and
awareness of KPO opportunities within FS companies is growing
While overall offshoring and outsourcing has continued to grow, BPO outsourcing has
faltered in last 2-3 years – for example, Financial services companies put more BPO
deals on hold in 2009 than any other sector (Morrison Foerster, 2010)
Average size of outsourcing transactions has declined in last 3 years
Most FS companies now maintain a ‘multi-sourcing’ approach to ITO and BPO
Existing captive centres continue to be exploited by those that have kept them but
several high profile examples of banks exiting the captive market (Citi, UBS)
Few new captives expected – FS companies preferring to outsource or co-develop
Centres of Excellence (CoE) with 3rd parties (e.g. Barcap in Kiev)
Noticeable examples of banks in-sourcing tasks in both BPO and ITO space – DB from
HCL, Barclays from Accenture - point to continued dissatisfaction with outsourcing services
This analysis takes the form of: An overview of the trends in outsourcing and offshoring by major financial
institutions in the last 3 years, covering the following dimensions
What (functions outsourced / offshored) How (form of offshoring and outsourcing) Where (popular and emerging locations for delivery) Who (summary of major outsourcing transactions by major Financial
Services (FS) players and outsourcers)
Supporting data for the current outsourcing landscape for the FS Industry

WHAT: Overall Growth in BPO, ITO and KPO services
FS companies have continued to outsource and offshore throughout the downturn though
at a slower rate than in previous years, mirroring the broader outsourcing market
The IDC reports that outsourced offshoring
generated $260 billion in revenues and had
grown by 25% during 2007-09
However, most activity has been an extension of
existing deals or services – relatively few major
new transactions
Datamonitor reports that the value of new
offshoring deals signed in the last quarter of
2008 fell by 38%, when compared to the
previous year
NASSCOM, the Indian software association,
revised offshoring growth downwards for the
2009 period

FS accounts for almost a third of all offshore services,
outsourced and captive
Over 75% of FS institutions are outsourcing
almost 40% of FS institutions are outsourcing
across multiple domains
the remaining 25% of FS institutions not
outsourcing are predominantly niche players in
private banking and insurance
ITO and BPO still represent the bulk of the activity but
the frequency and awareness of Knowledge Process
Outsourcing opportunities within Financial Services
companies is now significant (8% of respondents to the
Deloitte study)

Demand for IT outsourcing and offshoring has remained strong and is
growing for the FS industry across all major Western European
markets
e.g. JP Morgan increased outsourcing to India by 25% to
$400mil p.a.
Barclays – creation of IT CoE in Kiev, Ukraine
Use of nearshore locations has increased for higher value IT tasks
Growth of IT delivery centres in low cost US locations e.g.
Texas, Florida and Virginia
Citi – expansion of Belfast (N. Ireland) delivery centre
Basic services such as call centre and remote infrastructure
management offshoring are reaching saturation
High level of vendor consolidation to top tier Indian players by FS
institutions in order to:
Reduce costs by leveraging scale while maintaining service
quality
Mitigate risk / exposure to small vendors
e.g. Citi RightSourcing preferred vendor program
ITO remains a key cost lever for FS but consolidation and optimisation has driven much of
recent activity

Infrastructure: Cloud computing as next wave of Infrastructure sourcing – removing
the assets from the institutions
ADM: Moving up the value chain for AD – Business requirements definition and
design offshoring and outsourcing
Service Management: New standards and service models for ITO where current
models are perceived as failing

Industry-wide, post 2008 the market for offshoring BPO has
struggled. For 2009, the BPO market’s total contract value
fell 38% to $18.5 bn, its lowest level since 2001 (TPI, 2009)
Financial services companies put more BPO deals on hold
in 2009 than any other sector (Morrison Foerster, 2010)
However, growth is forecast to resume from 2010 onwards -
the BPO market is forecast to hit $450bn by 2012 (Nelson-
Hall,2009)
As organisational confidence grows ‘higher value’ functions
are increasingly being considered for outsourcing /
offshoring (Everest), e.g.
Performance management for HRO
Management reporting and analysis for F&A
FS specific processes were increasingly targeted as an
offshoring opportunity by major players across this period

WHAT: Future Trends in BPO
BPO - FS Specific
Expansion into Front & Middle Office functions
Commercialising Back Office processing engines – major banks as service providers
Move back onshore for failing functions – potentially some institutional client service
BPO – Generic
Procurement outsourcing growth - separation of Strategic Sourcing and Fulfilment functions
Accessing improved ERP system capabilities in the marketplace
F&A - management reporting and analysis

Whilst KPO is still a high growth and diversifying industry
area, we believe that most industry predictions from
2008-2009 will be revised down significantly
The majority of large capital markets banks have
established either a captive or outsourced capability for
some basic research functions
Competition has intensified in this sector as niche
players have been increasingly challenged by the major
BPO providers who are growing or acquiring KPO
capabilities
e.g. Cognizant bought out UBS’ captive as part of a
wider delivery centre acquisition
India has been the most common destination for KPO
services but increasingly Philippines, China, Ireland and
Mexico are emerging as alternative destinations
Citi – Expanding KPO operations in Philippines by
30% (2009)
Credit Suisse captive services in Poland (Wroclaw)
11 © Elix-IRR Partners LLP, 2010
WHAT: Future Trends in KPO
Diversification of research services - Product structuring, end-to-end research
production
Growth of legal offshoring for FS
KPO is BPO - most KPO processes become integrated into wider BPO capabilities,
not viewed as distinct discipline
Major BPO outsourcers cannibalise KPO specialists

As the most mature area of
outsourcing and offshoring, ITO
demonstrates the broadest spectrum
of operating models
Most major institutions operate a
mixed portfolio of strategies across
ADM and Infrastructure, including:
Captive
Dedicated / co-managed
Managed service
Full service outsourcing is most
prevalent in infrastructure services
ADM services are still perceived as
core in banking sectors especially and
retained on a more task or FTE-
governed basis
High level of consolidation to major
vendors
Invisible outsourcing to software
houses (see next slide)
Significant consolidation to
major Indian players such
as Wipro, Infosys, TCS,
Cognizant
Some banks also taking
functions back in house
from outsourcers – e.g.
Barcap
UBS and Citi have both sold
Indian IT Delivery Centres to
Indian Outsourcers
As Indian players try to expand
into the West, we also see some
sale of assets in Europe – e.g.
Citi data centre in Dusseldorf to
Wipro
Most of the large banks
who developed captive
centres in the last decade
have been increasing the
scope of these centres to
improve onshore / offshore
ratios– e.g. Deutsche Bank,
Credit Suisse
14 © Elix-IRR Partners LLP, 2010
Use of 3rd party software houses to develop and
support own product – for trading platforms and
specialised products it is more difficult to source
staff on the open market or via basic outsource
providers
Leads to creep in discretionary software spend
(disguised in the short term by amortisation)
IT divisions are unable to develop in-house
capabilities due to lead times and investment
requirements
Typical vendors for Capital Markets banks would
include:
FS-specific packaged software vendors
(MiSys, SunGard)
Specialist CMB platforms (e.g. Igefi, ION
Trading)
ERP giants: Oracle, SAP
FS IT divisions have been set
aggressive overall headcount
reductions over the last 2-3 years
Increased scrutiny of IT consulting and
development spend
Tighter procurement controls
Focus on short term cost reductions vs.
Long term capability development
Perceived risk of giving
bespoke/specialist software products to
generic outsourcers
Cause Effect
HOW: ‘Invisible’ Sourcing – Software Houses in ADM In response to pressures on headcount and IT development budgets, IT divisions are relying
increasingly on development and support services by 3rd party software houses

Assets
Few examples of ground breaking
changes in the BPO space 2008-10;
FS institutions have, as with ITO,
continued to leverage existing models
in trusted locations
Those who already have offshore
delivery centres have been able to
leverage those investments e.g.
Citi has added Procurement / P2P
functions to its offshore F&A centre
in Eastern Europe
SocGen have increased the scope
of their HRO in India
Back office processes for capital
markets remain dominated by captive
centre solutions
Multi-national banks are looking to
leverage their investments in
processing platforms by selling
services to smaller players and hedge
funds / asset managers
Capital Markets back office
processing is still mainly
done by captives
Deutsche Bank has started
to shift some activities back
from HCL to its own
delivery centre (DBOI) to
realise process efficiencies
and improved service
FAO
HRO
CMB
Procurement
FS Specific
Deutsche Bank remain
unusual in the BPO
space having outsourced
the majority of its
procurement to
Accenture. Other players
have predominantly gone
the captive route
Majority of banks have
achieved basic offshoring of
their HR and F&A functions –
for example Citi has extended
the scope of its Eastern Europe
site to take on the majority of
basic accounting activities
Full outsourcing of FS specific
processes is mainly confined to
retail and insurance industries

KPO is the smallest and least mature
area of outsourcing but is growing in
popularity as banks try to reduce the
cost of their research functions in an
effort to reduce cost to service clients
UBS has led the way in building an
offshore analytics function in its Indian
delivery centre but has since spun the
function off to Cognizant
Small outsourcers have gradually
been acquired by larger players such
as Cognizant, TCS and GenPact
Given the nature of these functions
there is little immediate appetite for
outsourcing anything more than basic
tasks; ‘judgement-based tasks’ remain
largely onshore with high cost analyst
resources
Given perceived high
value nature of
processes involved, it is
unlikely banks will full
outsource research
services as this is seen
as a differentiator

Managed Service
Growing area for capital
markets banks for
provision of basic
investor research to
support analysts, and
also management of

(library management,
admin, subscriptions)
KPO has ‘jumped’ a
development stage – as the
FTE counts involved are
typically small, FS institutions
have tended to either add into
their existing captive centres
or go directly to outsource
model

HOW: Captives in India
Source: Evalueserve – Captives in India, 2009
Captive centres continue to come
under pressure from large-scale
outsourcers, particularly the Tier 1
Indian players
Both Citi and UBS have disposed of
significant captive assets in the last 3
years
However, as the figure shows, many
companies have continued to
leverage their existing captive centres;
as a cost-effective method to
increase offshoring with low
investment (Deutsche Bank)
to retain control on higher value
functions (Citi)
to enable the realisation of process
efficiencies in onshore / offshore
handoffs (BNP Paribas, Deutsche
Bank )
The longevity and effectiveness of the captive offshore centre model continues to generate debate
Operations in Indian Captive Delivery Centres (2007-09)
IT; most mature area of outsourcing therefore least change. Even so, more
roles have been pushed into existing captives e.g. Deutsche Bank
BPO; activity least consistent – some banks have decided that outsourcers
are more cost effective (e.g. Morgan Stanley HRO to Hewitt) but those with
significant offshore delivery have increased offshore ratios (e.g. Citi F&A
and Procurement in Hungary)
KPO as the newest offering has shown most growth in captive services;
Nervousness about outsourcing skills previously seen as core so
have opted for building captives (e.g. Citi)
Poor outsourced service quality (e.g. Credit Suisse now manage
Irevna directly)
18 © Elix-IRR Partners LLP, 2010
HOW: Future Trends
Future of ‘captive’ and dedicated service centre models uncertain but overall likely to
decrease (i.e. Few expected ‘new’ captives)
Trend to exit of captives/co-branding in IT
Commercialisation of Back Office processing captives for the large banks
Continued lack of convergence on single strategy
Service Management capability as a differentiator
For FS Back Office processing (onshore / offshore integration and streamlining)
For IT (multi vendor management for value)

China
Major outsourcing centres have
continued to grow over the last 3 years
For FS, India is still the dominant

However E. Europe has become
increasingly prevalent,
Basic BPO (F&A – Citi,
Procurement – Deutsche Bank,
Citi)
ITO – BarCap new CoE in Kiev,
Ukraine
Philippines is increasingly popular for
front line support, especially in SE Asia
due to strong English language
capabilities relative to India or China and
low labour cost
China is comparatively unexploited by
FS – whilst most major banks have
some offshoring there, this is largely
confined to the support of Asian
business units (e.g. Hong Kong)

WHERE: The Rise of Nearshoring
Secondary locations in home countries or locations in nearby countries with lower labour
and real estate costs
USA
UK
Nearshore site examples
To maintain service quality and proximity of
management for ‘higher touch’ or sensitive services
and processes benefitting from:
Language
Culture
Lower knowledge transfer costs and attrition
rates
Easy to ‘parachute in’ management
Citi has invested significantly in its Belfast centre to
take advantage of significant UK government
subsidies provided, temporarily putting arbitrage on
a par with medium cost offshore sites such as
Prague
Major Indian vendors are now trying to enter this
space, buying data centres and other sites in W.
Europe and US – the objective is to compete on
service with major outsourcers such as IBM,
Accenture and HP
Rationale
21 © Elix-IRR Partners LLP, 2010
WHERE: Emerging & Niche Delivery Centres
South America
Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama: Popular for BPO and also call centres for Spanish
language services
Chile, Colombia, Argentina; Spanish-language services to US and Spain (e.g. Citi
Delivery Centre in Colombia) - Chile in particular is viewed as a stable environment
without the hyperinflation issues previously seen in Argentina and Brazil
Uruguay – niche BPO provider for the banking industry in Montevideo
Brazil: Growing as an IT service provider, particularly Curitiba (‘Silicon Valley of
South America’) but the majority of services are still consumed by the domestic
market due to language issues
Africa and Middle East
South Africa is popular for BPO from the UK due to language and time zone (e.g.
Morgan Stanley asset management). Seen as the FS centre for Africa but has infra-
structure and security concerns
Egypt is the leading emerging outsourcing provider in Northern Africa
Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria are developing language specific offshoring capabilities
for the French market, largely in the contact centre space – (e.g. SocGen, BNPP)
Jordan has grown as an offshore centre for Middle Eastern / Arabic businesses – solid
ITO capabilities though limited talent pool and language constraints
22 © Elix-IRR Partners LLP, 2010
WHERE: Future Trends
Nearshore growth (e.g. US/UK Tier 2 locations) to continue
Rise of emerging locations such in SE Asia (Vietnam, Indonesia) and N. Africa
(Egypt)as lower cost alternative to India and E. Europe
