FactSet accelerates global workforce integration with Deel

FactSet is a global financial technology company that delivers data and analytics to investment professionals worldwide. With over 10,000 employees across more than 20 countries, the company has grown through strategic acquisitions, expanding its reach and capabilities.

During a recent acquisition, FactSet needed to integrate more than 60 employees in Pakistan, a market with unique regulatory and employment requirements. Managing this transition efficiently—while maintaining compliance and operational continuity—required a robust, scalable solution

FactSet’s HR and mobility teams evaluated multiple solutions, prioritizing compliance, efficiency, and ease of integration. After extensive due diligence, they selected Deel’s Employer of Record (EOR) solution to facilitate a smooth onboarding process.

“Managing workforce transitions in new markets requires precision, agility, and the right expertise. We sought a partner that could help us move quickly while ensuring compliance—Deel proved to be the right fit.” — Christine Smith, Global Mobility and Immigration Director, FactSet

With just 48 hours to finalize onboarding, FactSet worked closely with Deel’s team to ensure contracts, benefits, and payroll were aligned with local regulations. Unexpected last-minute adjustments arose, but with Deel’s support, the integration proceeded without delays.

“Having a reliable partner in moments of high complexity is invaluable. Deel provided the expertise and responsiveness we needed to stay on track.” — Christine Smith, Global Mobility and Immigration Director, FactSet

Scalability and Compliance for Future Growth

Beyond this transition, FactSet continues to refine its global workforce strategy, ensuring its teams can operate seamlessly across markets. Deel’s platform and advisory support have contributed to FactSet’s ability to expand with confidence.

Looking Ahead, FactSet remains committed to enabling its employees—wherever they are—by leveraging best-in-class solutions that enhance efficiency, compliance, and integration. While the company continues to expand, its strategic approach to workforce management ensures that growth is both seamless and sustainable.
