Key Findings & Highlights:

HCL entered the RDM BPO business in 2002 when a global investment bank, headquartered in Continental Europe, wanted to establish an offshore operation in India. HCL established a joint venture with this bank and set up operations in Bangalore, scaling this to 1.5k FTEs by 2007.

The scope of the engagement was across all capital markets processes; a small but important part of this was RDM processes. In 2007, the bank decided to insource the operations as a captive; while this significantly reduced HCL's CM BPO operations with the client, HCL continued to obtain ITO work, and this financial institution remains one of HCL's largest clients.

Today, the RDM BPO business is growing faster than the overall BPO business.

Revenues have been growing since a new head of the BPO practice, who has a background in financial services, focused the business on industry-specific practices.

HCL's RDM BPO continue to grow, primarily due to growth in existing relationships, particularly the joint venture with a global custodian.

HCL's RDM BPO revenues are generated from entity data and securities data.

HCL RDM BPO delivers service from six delivery centers:

  • Chennai
  • Delhi
  • Pune
  • Coimbatore
  • Australia
  • U.K.

HCL's primary targets for RDM BPO are:

  • Tier one financial institutions headquartered in the U.S. and Europe
  • Tier two and three financial institutions with platform based BPO proposition/onboarding into a utility model.

In future HCL will continue target global institutions, but intends to add mid-tier banks and asset managers.
