Mercer has appointed Anish Sarkar to lead its consulting business in India.

Sarkar joins Mercer from the Capgemini Group, where he was the senior vice president and head of consulting for India. 

Sarkar will focus on driving a number of strategic growth initiatives to broaden the service and solution offerings beyond the compensation space (which will continued to be led by Shanthi Naresh), with a strong focus on the retirement, benefits and investments offerings delivered by Mercer, the company said.

"A core area of activity will be to bring Mercer's global solutions to the local market and to work closely with our sister companies (Marsh and Oliver Wyman) to bring seamless services to market across all MMC companies. There will also be an emphasis on identifying potential inorganic growth opportunities in India including strategic business alliances," Mercer said in a statement.

 

Cameron Hannah, Market Leader - India, Middle East, Turkey and Africa (IMETA), Mercer quoted, "The current economic and business environment in India is very promising. India is an important market for Mercer and its sister companies with significant potential for growth. This appointment signals the continuation of Mercer's strategy of focusing carefully on areas where Mercer wishes to invest in India."
