What’s next for IT in the financial sector?
British banking group Hbos – which is set to be taken over by Lloyds TSB – is planning to offshore around 2000 UK-based IT jobs to centres in India, according to press reports.
A report by UK tabloid the Mirror says the technology jobs, at Edinburgh and Halifax, are expected to go early next year.
The paper says it has seen documents that show the offshoring plans were drawn up by executives during a trip to India before the proposed Lloyds TSB takeover deal.
It will be interesting to see how the merger goes ahead, what elements of the IT are taken offshore, development? Infrastructure support?
The recent excitement in the financial sector is set to continue for the short term, how this will affect your role, your business is going to depend on you. With these new challenges comes opportunities in the market, projects in merging application and infrastructure, of standardizing platforms, bringing new workload on to the grid; or making one VMWare infrastructure work with another.
