Key Trends in the Market

Alternative financing refers to funding or financing that is granted by mediums other than traditional lenders like banks. Some examples of alternative lenders are investment funds, private equity firms, credit unions, hedge funds, and venture capital investors. Alternative financing typically boasts a quicker and easier lending process and offers loans without collateral at low-interest rates.

 

  • One of the key alternative financing market trends is the emerging shift from traditional financing options like banks to alternative financing modes like crowdfunding and corporate venture capital, especially among start-ups and small and medium-sized enterprises. Such financing modes are flexible, boast an easy application process and quick approval turnaround, and eliminate the requirement for collateral.
  • The emergence of fintech in both developed and developing countries is positively impacting the alternative financing market growth. Fintech companies are increasingly providing alternative financing solutions with flexible repayment options, lowered interest rates, and personalised terms, surging the accessibility of lending among underserved populations and organisations.
  • The trend of digitalisation and virtualisation, supported by Industry 4.0, is expected to support the alternative financing market growth in the forecast period. Moreover, lenders are increasingly leveraging technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to improve their operational efficiency and quality of offerings, automate various processes, analyse credit scoring of borrowers, and offer personalised services to clients.

Market Share by Type

As per the alternative financing market analysis, peer-to-peer (P2P) lending is experiencing a rapid growth as it enables users to directly obtain loans while eliminating the requirement for middlemen. P2P lending platforms evaluate borrowers through different aspects such as their income, credit score, employment, and social media activities, among others, to evaluate their creditworthiness.

 

In the forecast period, the popularity of crowdfunding is likely to significantly increase as it offers accessibility to diverse investors and empowers businesses and individuals to eliminate upfront fees. Crowdfunding platforms also serve as a way for businesses to market their products and gain valuable insights.

 

Market Share by End Use

Businesses are anticipated to represent a significant portion of the global alternative financing market share in the coming years. SMEs are increasingly preferring alternative financing options due to their efficient and smoother financing process and growing concerns regarding inflation, rising interest rates, and bank failures, among others. Businesses operating in sectors like construction, industrial, and transportation, among others, rely on equipment and hard assets, which boost their inclination towards alternative financers to provide agile and flexible funding.
