Finance Cloud Market Forecasts to 2028 - Global Analysis By Component, By Deployment Model, By Enterprise Size, By Service, By Application, By End User and By Geography

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Finance Cloud Market is accounted for $30.98 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $69.44 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 14.4% during the forecast period. A network where software is run and may be accessed by multiple servers or devices in one go is known as the cloud. It is a cutting-edge software package with lots of robust solutions for handling the business' finances. Additionally, it employs a variety of financial management tools to create budgets, issue invoices, track all expenditures, approve purchase requests, and manage payments. Moreover, the cloud-based financial software enables businesses to monitor sales, purchases, assets, and expenses in real-time.

According to RBC Wealth Management with 7.9 million HNWIs living there, North America had the most significant concentration of such people last year. In the previous year, 7.2 million HNWIs were recorded in the Asia-Pacific. High-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) are those whose wealth exceeds USD 1 million.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

SMEs & cloud services driving the market growth

The worldwide finance cloud market is primarily driven by rising financial firm demand for cloud services as well as increased operational efficiency and transparency in business processes. Additionally, small and medium-sized businesses continue to experience an increase in demand for cloud solutions because of the many functional advantages they provide, including the elimination of the need for recurring updates, cost savings, and increased company flexibility. Moreover, the expansion of the global market is therefore significantly influenced by these factors.

Restraint:

Increased Maintenance & Investment Costs

A cloud system typically has a significant acquisition and implementation cost. Absurdly high prices are demanded for their products by international software vendors, including IBM Corp., SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft. These software vendors also impose significant fees for the maintenance and support services they offer. The overall annual cost of maintaining and updating the cloud system is made up of internal costs (user training, IT salaries, and project management), external costs (IT vendors and contractors), and yearly maintenance and support fees paid to cloud providers.

Opportunity:

Growth in emerging countries

Conversely, expanding markets like India, Singapore, Australia, China, and South Korea present significant prospects for finance cloud companies to grow and develop their product offerings. Additionally, these nations are in the process of developing and lack financial resources; as a result, they require cost-effective solutions that would provide lucrative opportunities for market expansion. Moreover, banks, financial institutions, and other financing companies are rapidly transitioning to digitalized corporate operations; as a result, acceptance and implementation of the cloud have vastly expanded, which is projected to provide new avenues for the market in the coming years.

Threat:

Data security concerns

However, issues with data security, protection, and expensive investment and maintenance expenses limit the expansion of the finance cloud industry. Data loss frequently places cloud storage's security in jeopardy. Information can be substantially impacted by a computer virus, hacking, or a corrupt system, as opposed to being stolen and shared. Moreover, the other factors constraining the growth of the finance cloud market in the forecast period are the rise in concerns over regulatory compliance and the protection of intellectual property rights (IPR).

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic has a positive impact on the market for financial cloud services. The economy slowed down as a result of an increase in COVID-19 cases across the globe. Nevertheless, throughout the pandemic, the banking, insurance, and financial services sectors remained operational. Financial institutions had to quickly adopt remote working due to the epidemic, which led to the purchase of cloud-based infrastructure. A 10-year strategic cloud partnership contract was announced by Deutsche Bank and Google Cloud during COVID-19. The collaboration is expected to reduce expenses, increase cost-effectiveness, and accelerate the development of new expertise.

The solution segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

Because a user can establish a single client database and initiate automating billing, revenue management, and other crucial financial procedures using a cloud financing system, the solution segment is anticipated to acquire the largest revenue share in the finance cloud market in 2021 and is projected to dominate the same during the forecast period. Therefore, it is considered the most robust method for conducting profitable, reliable operations and retaining clients.

The private cloud segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

As private clouds offer users tools and services for managing cloud applications, including data storage, monitoring, and security, with no outlay, the private cloud segment is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR during the projected period. Additionally, organisations can benefit from a variety of cloud computing features without giving up control, security, or customization by utilising the private cloud. Moreover, the ability to enforce regulatory requirements and compliance, as well as more access and security control, are the benefits of private cloud computing.

Region with largest share:

Since the region's isolated infrastructure has been relocated to the cloud as a result of a booming economy and higher internet penetration rates, North America dominated the market in 2021 and is anticipated to dominate the market during the forecast period. However, the growth of the North American finance cloud market is largely attributed to increased security and agility, decreased capital expenditure (CapEx), and improved IT administration.

Region with highest CAGR:

Due to increased cloud application deployment to manage the rising demand for consumer management, expanding client needs, and growing digitalization in the area, the market is predicted to grow at the highest pace in Asia Pacific over the forecast period. For instance, the Indian government is focusing on fintech initiatives like Aadhaar, Jan Dhan Yojana, and the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) to modernise payment processes and boost financial inclusion.
