I don't think this is the whole story.

IBM is aggressively pursuing growth markets. Growth in the USA is more or less stagnant so they are looking elsewhere to increase revenue.

It doesn't hurt that in many growth countries you can get 2 developers (or support engineers) for the price of one American developer (or even better). This allows IBM to provide local services and support for less cost.
