Financial Services business challenges leading to sourcing strategies
Business challenges facing Financial Services organisations:
• Dynamic environment – Growing competition, globalisation, new
products, more mergers and acquisitions
• Financial pressures – Non-stop focus on cost reduction, especially while
companies are growing and expanding
• Risk mitigation – Regulatory compliance, business continuity, data
security and privacy are focus areas for financial institutions
• Business agility – Increasingly important for businesses to have
operational scalability and flexibility, better management information and
tighter business linkages
• Stakeholder value – Business value in EPS, stock price, business
viability and reputation are ongoing priorities for financial institutions
Business challenges identified in Asia Pac Financial Services sector leading to shared services and sourcing opportunities:
• Major banks – bad debts and dislocation in financial markets will reduce
margins leading them to continue their focus on cost reduction,
productivity and simplifying their organisational structures in a move to
“back to basics banking”
• Insurance companies – cost reduction and operational efficiency
continue to be a high priority, particularly in the wake of weaker economic
conditions and continued extreme weather events impacting loss ratios
• Investment banks – increased adoption of specialised technology, focus
on core capability and the desire to outsource back office functions are
key focus areas to improve product competitiveness
• Wealth management – tidal wave of regulatory reform with Cooper,
FOFA and Henry reviews is impacting product design, pricing, margins ,
distribution and competition resulting in companies re-evaluating their
their current organisational structure and sourcing model
Organisations are increasingly leveraging shared services
and sourcing strategies as a quick cost reduction lever; these solutions then provide the platform for further cost
improvements and business outcome improvement through reengineering and focused optimisation. A typical view of
the benefit from service delivery realignment is illustrated
below.

Financial Services shared services and outsourcing landscape
• The Financial Services industry, especially in Banking, has been using
the shared services model for a number of years
• Financial Services organisations have off shored to a number of countries including Malaysia, India, Philippines and increasingly China and people are always looking for opportunities for service improvement
or new technologies.
• Banks pursuing the hybrid model: most banks have adopted a hybrid
model for F&A processes, while a few have taken a pure shared services
route
• Outsourcing of processes to Third Party Providers set to increase: a
number of banks have engaged specialised third party providers for
transactional activities such as AP, keeping more complex functions e.g.
financial planning in-house / SSC
• Banks are increasingly starting to extend their relationships with third party providers for research capabilities using the Knowledge
Process Outsourcing arms of service providers
• Investment banks are leading the way in off shoring. Morgan Stanley,
JP Morgan, HSBC, ABN AMRO, UBS, Goldman Sachs and Nomura and
Barclays Capital for example have off shored high end processes such as investment banking equity research and high end analytics to India
• In the future, a move toward more complex hybrid models with JVs,
strategic alliances and third party models all existing at the same time is
expected (particularly in FS)
• Contract modification: M&A activity along with the severe industry downturn has created a number of opportunities to adjust service delivery
models such as renegotiating existing outsourcing contracts or
sale/leasebacks of centres
Illustration of processes that have been off shored to India by various
multi-nationals, highlighting that investment banks have experience off-
shoring high-end value-adding services:
Example outsourcing services available to FS companies:
• Process outsourcing
• Accounts outsourcing – GL accounting
• Book keeping services• SEC financial reporting and risk management
• Tax preparation services
• Payroll processing
• Double entry system / single entry system
• Equity research services• Life insurance outsourcing services
• Offshore annuity insurance services

Financial Services sourcing trends over the past 30 years
1990s –Mega deals and shared services 2000s – Multi-sourcing Late 2000s – Consolidation and optimisation
Background • Emergence of outsourcing
• Few global players with capabilities
• Focus on internal delivery centres
• Emergence of pure Indian players who became
more global
• Leading to emergence of multi-vendor deals
• Outsource and offshore models becoming more mature
• Maturity of delivery model led to increase in outsourcing and captive delivery centres
Typical Footprint
• Many organisations continue to deliver core services internally.
• Outsourcing often mega deals with providers with global footprint.
• Focus on low value transactional activities.
• Deals signed with vendors delivering niche services.
• The introduction of multi-vendor deals.
• The emergence of centres of excellence and KPO deals.
• Emergence of right-shoring with nearshore becoming key.
• Integrated service delivery models combining nearshore, offshore and outsourcing.
• Lower value activities typically outsourced.
• More focus on CoEs and KPO type services.
• Development of scale and capability.
Looking back • Focus on driving out cost savings .
• Initiatives not aligned to business needs.
• Creation of unsustainable models led to
failures.
• Multi-vendor agreements were complex.
• Lack of internal alignment led to fragmentation.
• Initial focus on labour arbitrage; later sourcing
became strategic and was incorporated into
global operating models.
• Focus on optimisation of existing footprint.
• Deployment of sourcing was increasingly strategic.
• Delivery models integrated / consolidated.
Financial Services organisations have moved from a purist, single service option to a very fragmented hybrid model and today they are
starting to consolidate in a more structured way

Shift in delivery model
• Shift from regional/national to global model
• Adoption of hybrid model becoming increasingly prevalent (mix of in-house SSC and outsourced )
• Expand existing centres to service new geographies and processes
• Move back towards insourcing / nearshoring for case work requiring expertise – Citibank have just announced an extra 500 roles in Belfast to cover this type of work
Increase in sophisti-cated processes
• Expand and move beyond transactional activities such as Payroll and AP, which are now stable
• Non-F&A transactional processes, such as mortgage application processing, are increasingly included in scope
• Move now is to move to more sophisticated F&A processes as statutory reporting, tax, and treasury
Unified / fragmented platforms
• One ERP system platform to drive the maximum benefits of standardisation
• Huge interest in distributed technology coupled with service:
– Cloud computing, SAAS, platform BPO
– Impact on core services not yet evident
Captive onshore SSC still popular
• To deliver benefits while reducing disruption and governance concerns
• Forced by increasingly tight work visa regulations in Europe and USA
• BPO providers (such as Infosys) have responded with more aggressive outsourcing models
Realise cost savings internally and then commercialise
• Captive SSC model for initial internal savings realisation, even if the pace is slower
• Once mature, SELL to a BPO provider for one off gain / further efficiencies
• Examples: Genpact – GE, Cognizant – UBS, TCS and Wipro-Citibank
Located in Asia or Eastern Europe
• Location competition between Eastern Europe and Asian countries (BNP Paribas - Morocco)
• Emerging geographies: Latin America, Philippines, Malaysia. Concerns around taxes, languages, and size of educated workforces
• Near shore alternatives include Morocco for France and Baltics for Scandinavia also emerging
• European language availability in India and China still an issue, but being addressed particularly in China
Flexible sourcing models and pricing
• Emerging trend for “in-sourcing”, bringing back in house complex or voice sensitive processes initially outsourced
• Stable, matured “de-coupled’ process; process work can be split over multiple centres, supporting multiple geographies
• More flexible, less rigid commercial models: pricing, reporting, rewarding, alignment of objectives and measures

Striving for greater focus on core competencies
� Desire for simplified back office structures to enable them to concentrate on delivering their core competencies resulting from years of acquisition across the Financial Services sector
� Investment banks are increasingly opting for a buy model selling off their BPO centres to third party providers, rather than housing them in their local or offshore canters
� As the SSCs mature, banks are now looking at moving more high-end, analytical processes to their offshore centres, while they move the vanilla (more transactional) processes to third parties
Decreasing appetite for risk
� More banks are now spreading their operations across locations, in an effort to decrease their dependence on certain economies and ensure business continuity of processes
� Banks such as Credit Suisse and Citigroup have adopted a multi geography strategy and Deutsche bank continues to use its near shore centres in US and UK, to support any outages in its offshore centres
Accessing new technologies such as cloud computing
� Financial Services organisations with mature sourcing models are starting to want more from their service providers, for example, seeking access to new technologies as part of outsourcing strategies
� Cloud computing, for example, enables companies to reduce costs as well as better align their IT and business functions. It can dramatically change the landscape of a company if implemented correctly and is particularly useful for disaster recovery operations where every site has to be available at real time (NB: perceptions of cloud computing effectiveness vary across organisations and individuals)
� Technologies such as cloud computing also enable companies to better manage their cost base as it has the advantage of
being able to scale up and scale down operations, as and when needed
Accessing skills unique to the outsourcing provider
� Organisations that are having difficulty retaining talent often seek the support of a third party provider to give them access to specific expertise and sophistication of processes
� Desire for improved data and information management to enable strategic decisions (e.g. high-end analytics)
Reducing costs through leveraging scale
� Financial Services continue to leverage shared services and sourcing strategies as a quick cost reduction lever
� These solutions then quickly provide the platform for further cost improvements and business outcome improvement through reengineering and focused optimisation
Financial Services market triggers and drivers
There are a number of triggers and drivers for moving to shared services and outsourcing across FS.

Actively manage real and perceived risks of offshoring and outsourcing
Perceived Risk Risk Considerations & Mitigation
You can’t outsource/offshore a mess, you need to fix it first
• Service Providers (SPs) excel at process improvement
and leverage best practices to fix “broken” processes
• Fundamental structural defects (control, fragmentation & localisation, governance) should be considered to be corrected prior to transferring or moving offshore
Internal process transformation is less risky than outsourcing
• Process and technology transformation is a core competency of SPs
• SPs are contractually obligated to transition, transformation, and ongoing service quality
• Any transformation (internal or external) should consider Company track record of success
SOX and similar external or internal security and compliance requirements prevent outsourcing & offshoring
• SPs support control and compliance requirements through:
– Strict process and consistent reporting mechanisms
– Performing the compliance legwork (e.g. automated controls, controls testing, documentation)
– Standardised (e.g., SAS 70) reporting
• Company governance processes (e.g., audited security procedures, internal checkpoints) mitigate risks
We will lose control • Company maintains control of strategy and policy and has right and obligation to monitor SP’s contractual obligations to perform against these strategies and policies
Perceived Risk Risk Considerations & Mitigation
Service quality will decline
• SPs are contractually obligated to maintaining service levels
• SPs have robust processes for transition and
knowledge transfer
• Companies should maintain effective selection process (e.g., joint solution design, due diligence,
transition planning, due diligence) and robust ongoing governance
We will lose all of our institutional knowledge
• SPs are contractually obligated to maintain documented process and procedures which are owned by the Company and passed back at the end of the term
• Retention plans can be put in place for key personnel
Labor arbitrage is the only benefit of offshore/outsourcing
• A properly negotiated outsourcing contract includes both labor arbitrage, guaranteed productivity gains, and business outcome gains
• Offshore locations have become an increasing source of skill availability for knowledge based processes
We will give away all of our savings potential to a provider
• Outcome based pricing and commercial structures (vs. FTE based) allow companies to lock in savings
Once we sign an agreement, we are stuck
• Exit rights and transfer assistance can be negotiated into the contract
