5 = Poor = Excellent Qualitative Assessment of Countries COUNTRY Financial Attractiveness Talent Pool Political Environment Infrastructure OVERALL Relevance for FS Comment China Major emerging economy, huge resource pool, strong government support Egypt Potential as alternate to ME and E Europe Sri Lanka Strong F&A, stabilising, could be managed by Indian hub South Africa F&A strength, Time zone & language convenient for Europe, FS centre for region Philippines Major mature global offshore centre, especially for English language BPO/ call centres Brazil Medium Large IT pool, emerging global economy but mainly domestic, language and bureaucracy barriers Mauritius Medium French & English skills, major DCs established by MNC outsourcers Vietnam Medium Popular for Japanese business, very low cost Chile Medium Spanish language support, KPO centre, government incentives Jordan Medium Potential for ME business support, especially in IT Morocco Niche French language centre Russia Insufficient return on investment required Ukraine Immature but potential Eastern Europe alternate in future Thailand Southeast Asian support, low cost but recent stability issues Indonesia Southeast Asian support, low cost but stability issues Madagascar French language back up to Mauritius only Mexico Similar to Chile but more relevant for US dominant businesses/spanish language Caribbean Limited skill base - suitable for US contact centres N.B. Order based on relevance for FS. Position within same ranking does not indicate any relative value, Source: Elix-IRR analysis, Gartner rankings e.g. Brazil is not ranked more relevant than Chile Elix-IRR Partners LLP, 2010

7 EXAMPLE Country Profile - China Background Popular offshoring destination for Japanese, Korean and Hong Kong businesses or to support company operations in Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia Summary Data Area Major Cities Data Beijing, Shanghai, Dalian In 2007, China s onshore and offshore outsourcing market was worth only $7.5 billion in revenue p.a., but by 2009, it had risen to 13 billion in revenue p.a. China now recognised as a mature location by Everest Group, a classification given previously only to India and the Philippines for operating over 50 delivery centres for leading global suppliers and Fortune 2000 captives Major Outsourcers / Captives The following companies have captive centres in China: Microsoft, Citi, GE, HSBC, UPS, Pfizer and Sanofi Aventis Leading outsourcesuppliers with Chinese delivery centres include: Accenture, HP, IBM, Infosys, TCS and Wipro Population c. 1,338.6 million (2010) GDP $4.9 trillion (2009) Official Language Skills Availability Mandarin Talent Pool Rated Good, Education system Good (Gartner 2010) 6.1 million university graduates in 2009, more than 730,000 of which are engineering graduates, compared to 490,000 in India, 70,000 in the United States and 23,000 in the UK Multi-lingual language skills in Japanese, Korean and other Chinese dialects (e.g. Hong Kong Cantonese) Positive and Negative Factors Provides large supply of low cost outsourcing resources Increasingly popular destination for low cost software development For Western companies dealing with clients or companies with Asian headquarters, there are cultural and language advantages Setting up delivery centres in China gives companies a good foothold into the domestic Chinese market in addition to serving clients in East and Southeast Asia Lack of strong English language capabilities and cultural affinity to Western companies among Chinese workers Lack of strong IP protection and regulation (software products easily duplicated) and concerns around data security/ privacy China is many time zones away from Western countries, especially the US, creating difficulties in communication 7 Elix-IRR Partners LLP, 2010
8 EXAMPLE Country Profile China - Assessment Criteria Rating Comment Relevance for FS Financial Attractiveness Socio-Political Environment Talent Pool Infrastructure OVERALL On average, a Chinese software developer with similar education and experience will cost half of what he /she will cost in India Real estate costs in Tier 2 cities far lower than major Indian cities Strong government support for growing the outsourcing industry Chinese government has now made English a mandatory subject at primary schools through to universities Difference in cultural fit with Western businesses Tax relief, low interest rates and subsidies given specifically to outsourcing oriented companies. China produced nearly 70,000 PhD graduates in 2009, 4,000 of which specialised in computer science In Shanghai alone, its engineering graduate pool is 30,000-40,000 p.a. which provides around 4,000-5,000 p.a. of employable pool with good English skills China also benefits from large number of high quality Chinese talents returning from the UK, US and Canada with top degrees China also benefits from large Indian outsourcing firms such as Infosys, Wipro and TCS setting up in the country to support their existing Indian labour to deliver large scale contracts with improved cost-effectiveness Availability of commercially experienced people large companies like Microsoft, Oracle and IBM all have R&D centres in China and most Fortune 100 companies have set up Chinese operations Over 300 million people actively learning English in 2010 China invests 370 billion p.a. on infrastructure - major projects to ensure steady power supply and high speed broadband in big cities New software parks with state-of-the-art facilities in major cities, e.g. Dalian Software Park and Beijing Zhongguancun Software Park (known as China s Silicon Valley ) Current major outsourcing destination for East and Southeast Asian operations and IT services, but with large global potential Labour cost is almost half of that in India levels of government support for outsourcing and IT businesses Opportunities in China tend to be in IT and R&D/ engineering rather than BPO Large talent pool of hard-working skilled engineers, IT developers and technicians 8 Elix-IRR Partners LLP, 2010
