Alternative Lending Market
Description
The global alternative lending market was valued at $354.8 billion in 2023, and is projected to reach $1,076.3 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 11.6% from 2024 to 2033.
Alternative lending refers to loan options available to consumers and businesses other than those options from traditional banks. Fintechs and non-banking companies are increasingly entering the alternative lending market to offer customized lending products designed for specific regions, demographic segments, or industries. It involves non-traditional methods of providing finance, typically outside the scope of traditional banks and financial institutions. This model has become increasingly popular due to its flexibility, speed, and accessibility for borrowers who do meet the standard requirements of traditional lenders. Alternative lending offers a variety of options, such as peer-to-peer lending, crowdfunding, marketplace lending, and online personal loans.
Factors such as increase in demand for flexible financing options and surge in favorable regulatory changes positively impact the growth of the alternative lending market. In addition, rise in peer-to-peer (P2P) lending and crowdfunding lending due to easier access to capital, lower borrowing costs, more inclusive financial services, and surge in trust in fast & transparent online platforms, is expected to fuel the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Moreover, technological advancements and shift in consumer preferences toward more accessible and efficient lending solutions are expected to positively impact on the growth of the market in the future. However, data privacy & security concerns, credit risk, and loan default are expected to hamper market growth. Furthermore, the expansion of lending platforms creates numerous opportunities in emerging markets by increasing access to credit, boosting financial inclusion and economic growth. Moreover, partnerships and collaboration between traditional banks and alternative lenders are expected to offer remunerative opportunities for the expansion of the global market during the forecast period.
On the other hand, the integration of AI, blockchain, and data analytics in lending platforms is expected to provide lucrative growth opportunities for the market in the upcoming years. Moreover, the development of technology to enhance loan decision-making, improve security, and streamline processes is anticipated to create lucrative opportunities for market growth, making solutions faster, more efficient, and more transparent. For instance, in August 2020, Funding Circle Limited collaborated with Santander to support small UK businesses by providing streamlined access to funding.
