Key Findings & Highlights:

NIIT started its retail banking BPS business in 2009, by beginning an account set-up and maintenance services relationship with a U.S. based processing services vendor (to ~200 banks and asset managers), which had been a client since 1995. In 2009, this client approached NIIT Tech to provide support for a London based customer which was moving accounts across platforms; NIIT Tech provided data validation services for the customer. Over time, other account processing services have been added, including: 

  • Data validation: 2009
  • Closing: 2010
  • Set-ups: 2010
  • KYC/AML: 2011
  • Account funding based on pre-instructions: 2013
  • Suspicious transaction investigation: 2014
  • Entire account processing responsibility: 2015.

NIIT Technologies’ retail banking BPS unit has 100 FTEs and delivers  services from one delivery center in Gurgaon, which covers all processes.

It will soon be adding retail banking BPS delivery from its existing Bangalore  center to provide operational backup to the Gurgaon center. NIIT Tech runs two shifts from India, which overlap and start four hours prior to opening in the U.S., ending four hours after the U.S. closes. Over time, NIIT Tech expects to expand delivery to 24 hour coverage.  

NIIT Tech’s retail banking BPS supports client operations in the U.S. and U.K.

NIIT Tech’s BPS delivery is built on three tenets: 

  • Standardization of processing  
  • Aggregation and consolidation of data
  • Platform implementation support (ITS).  

NIIT Technologies is targeting tier 2 U.S. financial institutions with asset bases of between $10bn and $50bn, and tier 2 U.K. financial institutions with asset bases of under $40bn.

  •  Direct clients:
