Experts consider that increasingly more companies might resort to outsourcing with a view to trimming their operation costs. According to estimations by management consultancy firm A.T. Kearney, in the short run, the revenues of the players on the local outsourcing market will go down as an effect of the international financial crisis, but they will bounce back in the second half of 2009.
“According to global estimations, at least 10% of the revenues of large-size Business Process Outsourcing companies are at risk. It’s hard to assess the exposure of the companies that operate in Romania to international financial institutions, but I expect the impact to be negative in the short term,” A.T. Kerney Romania representative Bogdan Belciu told the seminar “Trends on the outsourcing market” organized by Business Magazine in partnership with Sixt New Kopel, Ericsson, Xerox and Class IT Outsourcing.
