Focussed on the insurance market, this centre aims to deliver the best technology and insurance operation services to clients through innovation in operational, technological, and service excellence. The company brings its existing digital & domain expertise as well as global capabilities to constitute a proposition & capability, which would be helpful in harnessing the needs of UK clients.
