Definition:
Crowdlending platforms, otherwise know as lending-based Crowdfunding enable small and medium-sized enterprises to get loans from single or multiple, private and institutional investors via an online brokering platform. On credit platforms such as Funding Circle, OnDeck, Kabbage and Lending Club, businesses can obtain small loans up to a set maximum value. As a rule, financing requests are analyzed by the provider via an internal scoring system and are checked against additional minimum requirements such as turnover. Subsequently, these financing requests can be invested in by private and institutional investors at an appropriate interest rate determined by the credit rating of the company. This makes it possible for SMEs to borrow quickly and easily, as the basic requirements for obtaining finance are more flexible compared to traditional bank loans.Notes: Data was converted from local currencies using average exchange rates of the respective year.

The CrowdLending (Business) market in Mexico has been experiencing significant growth in recent years.
Customer preferences: Mexican businesses are increasingly turning to CrowdLending as a source of funding due to several reasons. Firstly, traditional lending options such as bank loans can be difficult to access for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), which make up a large portion of the Mexican business landscape. CrowdLending platforms provide a more accessible and streamlined process for obtaining financing, making it an attractive option for these businesses. Additionally, the flexibility and variety of loan terms offered by CrowdLending platforms allow businesses to find the funding that best suits their needs.
Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the CrowdLending market in Mexico is the emergence of specialized platforms catering to specific industries. These platforms focus on providing funding for businesses in sectors such as agriculture, technology, and renewable energy. This trend reflects the growing demand for industry-specific financing options and the recognition of the unique needs of businesses in different sectors. Furthermore, the use of technology and data analytics in the CrowdLending process is also on the rise. Platforms are leveraging advanced algorithms and machine learning to assess creditworthiness and determine loan terms, resulting in more accurate risk assessment and faster loan approval processes.
Local special circumstances: The Mexican business landscape is characterized by a large number of SMEs, which often face challenges in accessing traditional financing options. This has created a favorable environment for the growth of the CrowdLending market, as these platforms offer a viable alternative for SMEs to secure funding. Additionally, the government has implemented initiatives to support the development of the fintech sector, including CrowdLending platforms. This has further contributed to the growth of the market by creating a supportive regulatory framework and fostering innovation in the sector.
Underlying macroeconomic factors: The growth of the CrowdLending market in Mexico is also influenced by underlying macroeconomic factors. The country has experienced steady economic growth in recent years, which has created a favorable environment for businesses to thrive and seek financing. Additionally, the low interest rate environment has made traditional lending options less attractive for businesses, leading them to explore alternative sources of funding such as CrowdLending. The increasing adoption of digital technology and internet connectivity in Mexico has also played a role in the growth of the market, as it has made it easier for businesses to access and utilize CrowdLending platforms.
