Key Findings & Highlights:

This NelsonHall assessment analyzes WNS’ offerings and capabilities in retail banking services. WNS is one of a number of retail banking services companies analyzed in NelsonHall’s comprehensive industry analysis programs.  

In 2006, WNS started its retail banking BPS business with the acquisition of Trinity Partners, a mortgage processing BPS vendor, to pursue the mortgage services business. WNS’ RB BPS business grew, primarily from mortgage servicing contracts, until the economic downturn. As the financial crisis accelerated, the mortgage BPS business shrank in terms of revenues (~50%) and clients, consistent with industry experience. Since 2011 however, the mortgage BPS business has been growing. Over the years, WNS has added retail banking BPS services across the entire range of bank products, including payments, deposits, and loans.   

WNS delivers its service from ten delivery centers:

  • Gurgaon 
  • Mumbai
  • Pune
  • Nasik
  • Bangalore
  • Chennai
  • Colombo, Sri Lanka
  • Cape Town
  • Manila
  • Columbia, S.C.

Client geographies supported include:  

  • U.S.

WNS’ primary targets for retail banking BPS are: 

  • Regional and superregional banks headquartered in the U.S. 
  • Payments services vendors headquartered in the U.K.

In future, WNS will continue to target mid-tier banks based in the U.S., U.K. and Australia, with assets north of $30,000m.

WNS’ retail banking BPS strategy is to:

  • Develop long term partnerships based on operational excellence and providing “skin in the game” (WNS investments in operations for clients such as captive acquisition)
