Israeli IT company Aman Group is seeing a surge in the number of companies requesting to use its offshore services and move at least some activities overseas during wartime, said Ben, CEO and owner of the company.・Mr. Pasternak said.
Aman offers offshore, hybrid offshore and Israeli operating options. During the war, the company saw a 25-30% increase in requests from Israeli customers to offshor at least some of its activities.
Pasternak said it’s natural that people would not want to choose to use services based in countries with high instability, and this is true regardless of how people view the country. I explained that there is. He explained that even if you like a country or want to see it succeed, you don’t want to have a central system based there if you’re concerned about stability.
“People don’t buy from conflict zones,” he says. “This is an issue that is starting to have an impact, and we expect that impact to become increasingly severe,” he added.
Aman Group works with companies from various sectors, including banks, credit companies, insurance companies, gaming companies and many start-ups.
Aman encourages and supports its employees in the reserves, but the absence of employees during wartime is one of the issues that creates instability for customers, who are encouraged to relocate their operations to Aman’s offshore locations. Mr. Pasternak explained that he had come to make the request.
Judicial reform also caused problems.
Pasternak explained that judicial reform, like the war, created a general atmosphere in which cooperation with Israeli companies was difficult. Pasternak explained that investors don’t necessarily pay attention to details, but are heavily influenced by the overall atmosphere of the country in which they are considering investing.
