How Systems Limited enables GCC excellence
July 28, 2025
Beyond setup — Towards scalable excellence
Global Capability Centers (GCCs) are no longer just about setting up a remote team or reducing operational costs. For banks, GCCs have become strategic engines, helping deliver innovation, regulatory compliance, 24/7 operations, and scalable customer experience.
At Systems Limited, we don’t just build GCCs — we build banking-ready delivery engines that align with regulatory mandates, local market needs, and enterprise transformation goals. This blog explores how we do it: from delivery models and domain-aligned talent to real-world impact across MENAP and ASEAN.
A banking first approach to GCC delivery
Our approach is grounded in one key belief: GCCs must deliver outcomes, not just capacity.
We embed BFSI expertise into every layer of GCC design and operation — from infrastructure and security to governance and performance tracking. Whether a client needs a full Offshore Development Center (ODC), a KPI-based managed service, or a specialised Centre of Excellence (CoE), we tailor the setup to match the bank’s maturity, compliance exposure, and growth strategy.
Flexible GCC models that scale
We offer three proven engagement models:
Offshore development centers (ODCs)
Client-dedicated teams embedded within the bank’s delivery ecosystem — offering full visibility, IP protection, and seamless scaling.
Managed services
Systems takes end-to-end ownership of a specific function (like compliance ops, L1/L2 support, digital onboarding), delivering defined outcomes under agreed SLAs and business KPIs.
Centers of excellence (CoEs)
Domain-led units are driving innovation and continuous improvement across areas like Temenos delivery, AI/ML, data governance, testing, and regulatory reporting.
Results that speak
We currently power 20+ active GCCs across MENAP and Southeast Asia — helping leading banks scale securely and efficiently. Here’s a snapshot of what we’ve delivered:
· A full-stack GCC supporting the digital bank rollout of a leading MENAP bank
· Agile delivery squads for CX, onboarding, and regulatory operations for a UAE retail bank
· A CoE supporting Temenos testing and regulatory compliance for a top-tier Saudi financial institution
· SLA-governed managed services for digital ops and integration for banks across the region
What sets Systems Limited apart
