An offshore delivery centre (ODC) will also be set up by the company in Bangalore, India, for catering efficient services to UBS, which is expected to be operational from 1 April this year.
The European banking firm has already been working with many Indian as well as offshore-centric IT services vendors, including Cognizant, Infosys, TCS and Wipro, as reported by Business Standard.
The Swiss bank had awarded a five-year IT outsourcing contract worth $442m to Cognizant across IT infrastructure, application development and maintenance and BPO, in 2009.
