Philippines is one of the top tier destinations for the next wave of outsourcing, which is perhaps the most significant top date in terms of the type of outsourcing and quality of work product being outsourced.

As we see a marked shift from historic deployments of data entry and voice work to more complex professional-grade sourcing of services, so we see how the clear support of government and investment in language, financial literacy skills will pay a high dividend for the economy of the Philippines.

As ITO and BPO grow closer together and the opportunity, necessity for blended solutions emerges, we feel that the Philippines is particularly well-placed to benefit from this growth. A key area of anticipated growth that draws on both ITO and BPO domain expertize is the Finance & Accounting discipline.
