Indian outsourcing firm targets RG146
Indian-based Sundaram Business Services announced this week it had implemented a training program aimed at eventually having one third of its India-based staff trained and certified under Australia's RG146 financial services regime.
Sundaram describes itself as the largest provider of business process outsourcing (BPO) for Australian accountants and superannuation administrators of self-managed superannuation fund (SMSFs).
Commenting on the move, Sundaram global head of business development, Harish Rao, said the training program was already underway and had led to 30 Sundaram staff achieving RG 146 qualifications.
"The training program reflects our commitment to service excellence and our expectations of further growth in the SMSF processing area and other areas such as para-planning support," he said.
"We have planned to be the best qualified BPO destination for the Australian financial services industry and have a long-term commitment to this market."
