The credit crunch will hasten organisations move offshore, as companies look to reduce costs and buy their way into emerging growth markets, particularly in the financial services and telecoms sectors, the report says.

The emerging economies of Asia and Latin America will ride the crest of this wave, housing support functions such as finance and accounting services, and benefiting from the relocation of existing shared services centres.

The report predicts services such as customer management services, payments and other industry-specific financial sector services, and recruitment process outsourcing will benefit directly from the trend of companies buying into growth markets.

NelsonHall outlines its predictions in the report Global BPO Market Forecast: 2008 – 2012.
