Date: Oct 16th, 2009
September issue of Information Week (http://www.informationweek.com/500 ) , had a breakup of % spend on IT and details on which industry segmentsare expecting the spend to go higher for 2009. As always financial services continues to spend a higher percentage of their revenues ( when they have the revenues !) and Healthcare and Insurance industry looks like willing to spend more on IT dollars.
For the financial services firms offshoring continues to be a higher percentage of effort in IT. Not necessarily a growth but an overall higher percentage continue to offshore ( 76% compared to 57% across all industry segments).
Recent quarterly results by IT offshore vendors also seem to point to a similar trend.
