By talking to end users and gathering feedback regarding their outsourcing relationships, we feel that the Brown-Wilson Group has captured a valuable measurement of our industry’s performance.

“Our team of global professionals constantly strives to develop new and innovative ways to help our clients, improve their business processes and it is extremely regarding to know how much our clients value our commitment to continuous improvement,” said Genpact CEO Pramod Bhasin.

“We are proud to be named the number one KPO for investment research and analytics globally. We are very pleased that our clients have extended us this honour,” said Rishi Khosla, CEO and co-founder, Copal Partners, expressing his excitement on the announcement.

Nearly, 1,700 suppliers from 45 countries qualified for the 2008 Black Book 50, based on client nominations. The survey results also predict an increase the number of bundled outsourcing offerings, encompassing both information technology and business processes, as well as increase in finance and accounting contracts in the banking and financial services sector.
