Bengaluru, November 20, 2025: The Standard, a U.S.–based provider of insurance, retirement, and investment products, has announced the establishment of StanCorp Global Services India Private Limited (The Standard India), its new Global Capability Center (GCC) in India. The center will support the company’s technology transformation, innovation efforts, and future growth while generating high-value employment opportunities.
The company has also appointed Mohua Sengupta as Senior Vice President and Country Head for India. Sengupta brings nearly three decades of experience in banking, financial services, and information technology, having previously held leadership positions at Novartis India GCC, 3i Infotech, ITC Infotech, IGATE, Mphasis, Accenture, Wipro, and the Royal Bank of Canada.
“I’m excited to welcome Mohua to The Standard to lead our operations in India,” said Greg Chandler, Executive Vice President of Information Technology at The Standard. “Her skills and leadership characteristics fit well with The Standard’s culture and she will be an incredible asset to our company as we scale and grow our U.S. business.”
Expressing her optimism about the new role, Mohua Sengupta said, “I’m delighted to join The Standard during this exciting time of rapid growth. Standard India will provide access to specialized global talent here in India who will deliver more efficient solutions for current and future customers, and scale more sustainably.”
Sengupta will oversee operations across Bengaluru and Pune, including financial, compliance, and regulatory responsibilities, and will lead all employees of The Standard India.
The new entity will initially include 175 employees transitioning from Allstate India Private Limited, following The Standard’s acquisition of the Allstate Employer Voluntary Benefits business earlier this year.
The Standard India is expected to expand its workforce substantially as part of its long-term hiring plan.
