AoN, the world's second largest insurance broker, has warned businesses that India is the most dangerous place on Earth (and is thus a high insurance risk :P).

"A lot of British companies are outsourcing to India, particularly call centres," Mr Bassett told BBC News Online.

"We're advising contingency plans in case that call centre comes under attack."

To lower the risk companies are being advised to not only increase security, which means making allowances for such in budgets, but also reconsidering their choice of locations.

The full story is available here. AoN's colour-coded chart of high risk areas of the world can be seen here.
