-- Following the opening of its India offices in 2016, this latest investment 
in Australia reinforces Equisoft's commitment to support an expanding APAC 
client base. Regional clients can now even more easily access Equisoft's 
technology expertise across insurance and wealth management. 

Equisoft, a leading global provider of digital business solutions for the 
insurance and wealth industries, proudly announced the opening of a new office 
in Sydney, Australia. This new location extends Equisoft's footprint in the 
APAC region, where the company has been established since 2016.

"Our business strategy is very simple," said Equisoft's CEO Luis Romero. "In 
each of our verticals, we want to offer the best technology solutions to create 
seamless experiences across the entire value chain, and we want to be where our 
customers are. The decision to open a new office in Sydney was the logical next 
step in our expansion to better meet the needs of our Australian-based clients 
and the growing demand for our products and services in the surrounding region."

On the insurance side, Asia-Pacific has been the fastest growing market in the 
past five years, driving nearly 70% of the global growth, and Australia is a 
very important contributor to that growth. As in many regions, an increasing 
number of companies invest in digital transformation initiatives to gain 
operational efficiencies and enhance adviser/customer experiences in 
prospecting, onboarding and servicing. 

"We are increasingly being presented with business opportunities in APAC, not 
only in Australia and India but throughout the region," added Simon Richardson, 
Vice President, EMEA & APAC at Equisoft. "We recognise that there are unique 
and nuanced considerations for effectively partnering with our clients in 
different geographies. Having a capability with a permanent presence in 
Australia helps us collaborate more closely with our clients to gain a deeper 
appreciation of their needs and offer appropriate solutions."

With a growing team of over 450 technology experts now based on five 
continents, Equisoft provides its clients with onshore, nearshore and offshore 
resources specialized in life insurance and wealth management. This allows the 
firm to offer regionally appropriate pricing, reduced delivery risk, and 
resources with locally relevant knowledge and skills, which ultimately reduces 
cost for clients and improves customer and adviser value.
