Key Findings & Highlights:
Mphasis, founded in 2000, provides infrastructure technology, BPS, and applications services including application architecture design, development, integration, and management services. Mphasis is organized by industry; banking and capital markets is its oldest industry unit, and its largest single industry revenue generator. Mphasis was started by an exCitibanker, and among its first clients were two global banks based in the U.S
This report focuses on Mphasis’ wealth and asset management operations services, which it groups within the BFS vertical. It has provided wealth and asset management services since 2002, when it established Mbroker, an Indian based firm, registered with NASD (now FINRA) with licensed resources (Series 7 etc.), which delivered BPS services to brokerage firms. The acquisition of licensed employees gave Mphasis a distinctive delivery capability that has allowed it to successfully pursue additional middle-office BPS work at securities firms.
In 2011, Mphasis started building tools that would enhance labor. In 2015, it began to develop combined technology and operations offerings which would allow KPIs to be outcome based and pricing to be based on the same metrics (AUM) that are used by clients to generate revenues.
