Financial services firm Arcesium sets up office in Bengaluru

BENGALURU: Arcesium LLC, a leading global financial technology and professional services firm has expanded its India operations with the addition of a new office in Bengaluru.

The new Bengaluru office is expected to commence its operations in the second quarter of 2021 with 200 employees, with expected potential to grow to 500 employees over the upcoming year.

“Having recently celebrated Arcesium’s fifth-anniversary, we are thrilled to mark this milestone year with our expansion into a new city in India.

“Investing in talent is key to elevating Arcesium further as a world-class technology and service provider. When assessing our expansion strategy, we considered various cities across India to support our growth. Bengaluru made perfect sense as our next location because of its well-known innovation and technological sophistication. With the opening of our Bengaluru office, and continued growth in Hyderabad, we expect to complete 2021 with an extraordinary team of more than 1,500 employees in India,” said Ranvijay Lamba, Managing Director and Head of India at Arcesium.
