    Analyst Opinion

    The Crowdinvesting market in Thailand is experiencing significant growth and development.

    Customer preferences:
    Thais have shown a growing interest in alternative investment options, particularly in the technology and startup sectors. This is driven by a desire to diversify their investment portfolios and seek higher returns. Additionally, the younger generation in Thailand is more open to taking risks and investing in innovative projects, making them more likely to participate in crowdinvesting platforms.

    Trends in the market:
    One of the key trends in the crowdinvesting market in Thailand is the emergence of platforms that focus on specific industries or sectors. This allows investors to choose projects that align with their interests and expertise. For example, there are platforms that specialize in funding renewable energy projects, technology startups, or social enterprises. This trend reflects the growing demand for niche investment opportunities and the desire to support projects that have a positive impact on society. Another trend in the market is the increasing use of technology to facilitate crowdinvesting transactions. Many platforms now offer mobile applications and user-friendly interfaces, making it easier for investors to browse and invest in projects. This has also led to the rise of online communities and forums where investors can discuss and share insights about different projects, further fostering a sense of collaboration and community within the crowdinvesting ecosystem.

    Local special circumstances:
    Thailand's vibrant startup ecosystem and government support for entrepreneurship have created a conducive environment for crowdinvesting. The country has seen a surge in the number of startups in recent years, with many of them seeking funding through crowdinvesting platforms. The government has also introduced initiatives to promote innovation and technology, providing additional incentives for investors to participate in crowdinvesting.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    Thailand's strong economic growth and increasing middle class population have contributed to the development of the crowdinvesting market. As more individuals have disposable income, they are looking for investment opportunities beyond traditional options like stocks and real estate. Crowdinvesting provides a way for them to invest in high-growth potential projects and support local entrepreneurs. In conclusion, the crowdinvesting market in Thailand is experiencing growth and development due to customer preferences for alternative investments, the emergence of niche platforms, the increasing use of technology, the vibrant startup ecosystem, and favorable macroeconomic factors. This trend is likely to continue as more individuals seek investment opportunities that align with their interests and values.

    Methodology

    Data coverage:

    The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on transaction values / revenues / assets under management and user data of relevant services and products offered within the FinTech market.

    Modeling approach / Market size:

    Market sizes are determined through a combined top-down and bottom-up approach, building on a specific rationale for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of key players, industry reports, third-party reports, publicly available databases, and survey results from primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, consumer spending, population, internet penetration, smartphone penetration, credit card penetration, and online banking penetration. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

    Forecasts:

    In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.

    Additional notes:

    The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war is considered at a country-specific level.
