The deal will give EXL access to IQR’s global delivery model and marquee clients across the US, which in turn will help EXL speed up its analytics growth.
EXL vice chairman and CEO Rohit Kapoor said: “Analytics is a key growth driver for EXL, and we continue to build what is already a world-class franchise in the banking vertical. IQR has astutely figured out how to engage with clients in the super-regional bank and credit union markets.
IQR has expertise in developing predictive algorithms and real-time reporting tools to support clients’ decision-making process, EXL said. It offers actionable insights for clients from marketing optimisation and customer segmentation to scoring risk and predicting fraud.
“We look forward to expanding this largely under-penetrated segment, and believe we can help IQR’s clients achieve even greater success through the use of analytics.”
