Key Highlights
  • Banking industry involves the activities of banks and similar institutions that offer financial services such as savings, loans, mortgages, and related services to businesses and consumers. Market value represents the total assets held by banks or related institutions in a country in a year. The market share represents the total asset held by the companies in the specific year. Geographical segmentation measures the total assets held by commercial banks of a particular region.
  • The market is segmented into bank credit, inter-bank loans, cash assets, trading assets, and others. The scope of others includes investments, loans receivable, and fixed assets. Bank credit refers to funds that a bank lends to individuals, businesses, or other entities. Inter-bank loans are loans made between banks. These loans serve as a mechanism for banks to manage their short-term liquidity needs and meet regulatory requirements. Cash asset products of banks provide customers with a secure and convenient way to manage their cash holdings while earning potential returns on their funds. Customers can choose from a variety of products based on their financial goals, risk tolerance, and liquidity needs. Bank trading assets refer to financial instruments and securities that banks hold primarily for trading to generate profits. These assets are actively bought and sold within the bank's trading desk or investment division to capitalize on short-term price fluctuations, market trends, or arbitrage opportunities. Trading assets can encompass a wide range of financial instruments such as equities, commodities, and foreign exchange.
  • All market data and forecasts are based on nominal prices and all currency conversions used in the creation of this report have been calculated using yearly annual average exchange rates. The USD values may show a declining trend for few countries such as Argentina, Turkey, Nigeria, Egypt, and Russia. This is primarily because of the impact of exchange rates considered.
  • The global banking industry recorded assets of $205,389.5 billion in 2024, representing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0% between 2019 and 2024.
  • The bank credit segment accounted for the industry's largest proportion in 2024, with total assets of $93,961.6 billion, equivalent to 45.7% of the industry's overall value.
  • The global banking industry grew by 4.5% in 2024, primarily driven by the decline in bank lending rates, which reduces borrowing costs and encourages greater credit uptake. Lower lending rates stimulate demand for personal and business loans, leading to an expansion in the bank credit segment, which directly increases the total assets held by banks. According to the European Central Bank, the bank lending rate in France was reduced to 4.2% in August 2024, down from 4.5% in October 2023, facilitating broader access to credit.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
