Hyderabad, April 16: In a major boost to India’s growing Global Capability Centre (GCC) ecosystem, US-based wealth management giant LPL Financial has inaugurated its first-ever GCC outside the United States in Hyderabad, marking a key step in its global expansion strategy.
The Hyderabad centre will serve as LPL Financial’s first international GCC and is expected to hire around 1,500 technology professionals over the coming years.
The new facility will support critical enterprise functions including technology development, operations, product innovation, data analytics, and risk management, strengthening the firm’s global delivery capabilities.
The centre is part of LPL Financial’s long-term strategy to leverage India’s deep tech talent pool to build next-generation financial services solutions and enhance operational resilience for its global network.
According to company officials, the Hyderabad GCC will play a key role in accelerating digital transformation initiatives, particularly in areas such as AI-driven platforms, software engineering, and data infrastructure.
