    Analyst Opinion

    The Venture Debt market in Thailand has been experiencing significant growth in recent years.

    Customer preferences:
    Thai entrepreneurs and startups are increasingly turning to venture debt as a financing option. This is driven by several factors. Firstly, venture debt offers a way for companies to raise capital without diluting equity, allowing them to retain control and ownership. Secondly, venture debt is often more accessible and easier to obtain compared to traditional bank loans, which have stricter requirements and collateral demands. Additionally, venture debt provides entrepreneurs with the flexibility to use the funds for various purposes, such as expanding operations, investing in research and development, or hiring talent.

    Trends in the market:
    One of the key trends in the Venture Debt market in Thailand is the growing number of venture capital-backed startups. As the startup ecosystem in Thailand continues to mature, more companies are receiving funding from venture capital firms. These startups often require additional capital to support their growth and scale their operations. Venture debt provides a viable solution for these companies to bridge the gap between equity rounds and access the capital they need to fuel their expansion. Another trend in the market is the emergence of specialized venture debt providers. These lenders focus exclusively on providing debt financing to startups and early-stage companies. They understand the unique needs and challenges of these businesses and are able to tailor their loan terms accordingly. This specialization has helped to increase the availability and accessibility of venture debt in Thailand.

    Thailand has a vibrant startup ecosystem, with a growing number of entrepreneurs and investors. The government has also been supportive of the startup ecosystem, implementing various initiatives and programs to foster innovation and entrepreneurship. This favorable environment has created a conducive atmosphere for the growth of the Venture Debt market in Thailand.

    Underlying macroeconomic factors:
    Thailand's strong economic growth and stability have also contributed to the development of the Venture Debt market. The country has a robust financial sector and a well-regulated banking system, which provides a solid foundation for venture debt providers. Additionally, Thailand's strategic location and connectivity to other markets in Southeast Asia make it an attractive destination for startups and investors alike. In conclusion, the Venture Debt market in Thailand is experiencing growth due to the preferences of entrepreneurs and startups, the emergence of specialized lenders, the supportive local ecosystem, and the underlying macroeconomic factors. As the startup ecosystem continues to mature and the demand for capital increases, the Venture Debt market is expected to further expand and evolve in Thailand.

    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.
