Analyst Opinion

The Capital Raising market in Ireland has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, driven by several key factors.

Customer preferences:
Investors in Ireland have shown a growing interest in capital raising activities, as they seek to diversify their portfolios and maximize returns. This has led to a strong demand for investment opportunities in the country, particularly in sectors such as technology, renewable energy, and real estate. Additionally, Irish investors have shown a preference for sustainable and socially responsible investments, leading to an increase in capital raising activities in these areas.

Trends in the market:
One major trend in the capital raising market in Ireland is the rise of crowdfunding platforms. These platforms provide a new avenue for entrepreneurs and small businesses to raise capital, bypassing traditional financial institutions. This trend has been fueled by the increasing popularity of online platforms and the ease of access to a large pool of potential investors. Crowdfunding has also become an attractive option for investors, as it allows them to support innovative projects and potentially earn high returns. Another trend in the market is the growing importance of venture capital and private equity funding. Irish startups and high-growth companies have attracted significant investment from venture capital firms, both domestically and internationally. This trend is driven by the country's favorable business environment, strong entrepreneurial culture, and access to a highly skilled workforce. Venture capital and private equity funding provide startups with the necessary capital to scale their operations and expand into new markets.

Local special circumstances:
Ireland's position as a global hub for technology and innovation has contributed to the growth of the capital raising market. The country is home to many multinational technology companies, as well as a thriving startup ecosystem. This has attracted both domestic and international investors, who see Ireland as a favorable investment destination. Additionally, the Irish government has implemented policies and initiatives to support capital raising activities. These include tax incentives for investors, grants and funding programs for startups, and the establishment of innovation hubs and accelerators. These initiatives have created a favorable environment for capital raising, encouraging both entrepreneurs and investors to participate in the market.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The strong performance of the Irish economy has also played a role in the growth of the capital raising market. Ireland has experienced robust economic growth in recent years, driven by factors such as foreign direct investment, export growth, and a skilled workforce. This has created a positive business environment and increased investor confidence in the country. Furthermore, low interest rates and ample liquidity in the global financial markets have made capital raising activities more attractive for both entrepreneurs and investors. With interest rates at historic lows, investors are seeking higher returns through alternative investment opportunities such as venture capital and private equity. In conclusion, the capital raising market in Ireland is experiencing significant growth due to customer preferences for diversification and sustainable investments, the rise of crowdfunding platforms, the importance of venture capital and private equity funding, Ireland's position as a global technology hub, government support for capital raising activities, and favorable macroeconomic factors.

Methodology

Data coverage:

Data encompasses B2B and B2C enterprises. Figures are based on the amount of capital raised, the average of deal size and the number of deals.

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 data from OECD, 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, CPI, number of small and medium-sized enterprises (SME), new businesses registered (number) . 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.
