Trends in the market: One of the key trends in the Capital Raising market in Netherlands is the rise of crowdfunding platforms. These platforms have gained popularity among both investors and entrepreneurs, as they provide a more accessible and efficient way to raise capital.

However, these businesses often face challenges when it comes to accessing capital. Traditional banks and financial institutions may be reluctant to lend to startups and SMEs due to the perceived higher risk associated with these businesses.
