SAN FRANCISCO, Sept 27 (Reuters) - Accenture Ltd (ACN.N) said on Thursday that subprime mortgage woes among lenders have had no impact on the company so far.

Troubles in subprime mortgages, or loans made to the riskiest home buyers, have had no effect on the technology-services company so far, "although we continue to monitor the situation," an executive said on a conference call with analysts following Accenture's fourth-quarter earnings report earlier on Thursday.
