Analyst Opinion

The Marketplace Lending (Consumer) market in Gabon has been experiencing significant growth in recent years. Customer preferences in the Gabonese Marketplace Lending (Consumer) market are driven by a number of factors.

One key factor is the convenience and accessibility that online lending platforms offer. Customers in Gabon are increasingly turning to these platforms as a convenient and efficient way to access credit. Additionally, the speed at which loans can be approved and disbursed through online lending platforms is a major draw for customers in Gabon, who often need quick access to funds for various purposes.

Trends in the Gabonese Marketplace Lending (Consumer) market include the increasing use of mobile technology to access lending platforms. With the widespread adoption of smartphones in Gabon, more and more customers are using mobile apps to apply for loans and manage their borrowing. This trend is expected to continue as mobile penetration rates in Gabon continue to rise.

Another trend in the Gabonese Marketplace Lending (Consumer) market is the emergence of peer-to-peer lending platforms. These platforms connect borrowers directly with individual lenders, cutting out the traditional intermediaries such as banks. This trend is driven by the desire for lower interest rates and more personalized lending experiences.

Local special circumstances in Gabon also contribute to the development of the Marketplace Lending (Consumer) market. One such circumstance is the limited access to traditional banking services in certain areas of the country. Online lending platforms provide an alternative source of credit for individuals who may not have access to traditional banking services.

Additionally, the high cost of borrowing from traditional banks in Gabon has led to increased interest in Marketplace Lending (Consumer) platforms, which often offer more competitive interest rates. Underlying macroeconomic factors in Gabon, such as a growing middle class and increasing financial inclusion efforts, also contribute to the development of the Marketplace Lending (Consumer) market. As more individuals in Gabon gain access to formal financial services, the demand for credit is expected to grow.

Marketplace Lending (Consumer) platforms are well-positioned to meet this demand by providing quick and accessible credit options. In conclusion, the Marketplace Lending (Consumer) market in Gabon is experiencing growth due to customer preferences for convenience and accessibility, as well as trends such as the use of mobile technology and the emergence of peer-to-peer lending platforms. Local special circumstances, such as limited access to traditional banking services and high borrowing costs, further drive the development of the market.

Underlying macroeconomic factors, such as a growing middle class and increasing financial inclusion efforts, also contribute to the growth of the Marketplace Lending (Consumer) market in Gabon.

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.
