"More is Better" | Location and Sourcing Strategy for BFS GBS

Banking and Financial Services (BFS) companies have led the market when it comes to GBS model adoption. However, external market conditions, including the geopolitical environment, great resignation, talent shortage, and inflationary pressures have made finding talent and achieving enterprises’ growth aspirations a struggle for BFS GBS organizations.

To meet the surge in demand for talent, BFS GBS organizations are expanding their locations and sourcing portfolios with a “more is better” approach by searching out various talent supply models and locations across offshore, nearshore, and onshore geographies.
