Key Findings & Highlights:

iGATE started its capital markets BPO business in 2005 with an engagement for a Swiss based hedge fund. The hedge fund was a client for IT services (converting IT operations onto an acquiring tier 1 bank platform). The first CM BPO engagement was in reconciliation for the hedge fund. Over time the reconciliation engagement expanded to providing reconciliation for the tier 1 bank parent, as well as reconciling a broader range of securities trades.

CM BPO is a part of iGATE's financial services line of business, and works with clients in retail and commercial banking.

iGATE's primary targets are:

  • Tier 1 banks headquartered in U.S. and Canada
  • Tier 1 investment banks and broker/dealers headquartered in U.S.
  • Capital market service providers
  • Asset managers (all sizes) headquartered in the U.S.

iGATE CM BPO delivers services from four primary delivery centers:

  • Bangalore
  • Mumbai
  • Noida
  • Hyderabad.

iGATE's key differentiators are:

  • Strong Canadian banking market penetration: iGATE has 3 of the top 5 banks in Canada as clients. Its largest client is RBC
  • iTOPS: an integrated IT BPO model for providing service to clients that delivers more than labor arbitrage savings
  • Platform expertise (for the North American market): the experience of working with key North American platforms (e.g., Omgeo, Netezza, SmartStream, and AVOX).

iGATE intends to drive client acquisition and revenue growth in the next several years by expanding three key areas of its services:

  • Capital markets analytics
  • Compliance offerings
  • Developing cloud based hosted offerings in partnership with platform vendors to offer clients the opportunity to choose an external hosting model
  • Platform BPO for tier 2 clients.
