Why the Philippines? 

Flexibility, Expertise, Accommodation, Economy 

The Philippines is rapidly becoming the world's offshore destination of choice. What differentiates it versus other countries offering shared services and offshore work? Plenty:

The Global Hub: The Philippines is the world's third largest English-speaking nation outside the United States and the United Kingdom. The contact centre industry is the fastest growing industry in the country, growing from a 10,000 seats eight years ago to well over 140,000 seats today and counting. This growth is a testament to the fact that the Philippines is a natural hub for global contact services.

World Class Manpower: Annually, the Philippine educational system yields over 300,000 highly skilled and educated graduates giving companies an abundant supply of high-quality, low-cost talent. Filipinos are considered the premier option for outsourced services in the international contact centre market due to:

» English-fluency
» Internet/technology savvy
» Perception of BPO work as a career
» Affinity to Western culture and lifestyle
» Large pool of qualified talent
» Cultural emphasis on learning and education

Business Friendly Environment: Companies offshoring to the Philippines enjoy access to an atmosphere conducive to serving overseas businesses. These include:

» Stable vendor and support infrastructure
» Redundant international connectivity
» State-of-the-art communications technology
» Dedicated business centres
» Low stress, high security environment
» Comparably lower boarding and housing rates than other
   international destinations
» Access to cosmopolitan living, working and recreational facilities
