In our 2013CF ANNUAL GROWTH • FINANCIAL VS. Crowdfunding Industry Report, we reported that crowdfunding platforms raised OVER 2012. NON-FINANCIAL a total of $2.7bn in 2012, compared with $1.47bn in 2011, and we forecasted CROWDFUNDING that total funding volumes would reach $5.1bn in 2013. We can now confirm that global crowdfunding volumes in 2013 in fact reached a shade under $6.1bn. MODELS This represents market acceleration from an 83.7% annual growth rate1 in 2012 to an annual growth rate in 2013 of 125%. The delta between our forecast • INDIVIDUAL MODELS and our confirmed 2013 numbers can be attributed to faster than anticipated gains made in the new high growth category of real estate crowdfunding (see Massolution’s new report 2015CF-RE Crowdfunding for Real Estate) and further insight we have gained into rapidly expanding markets, in particular in Asia and “ in Europe. In part, this resulted from increased survey participation from Asian crowdfunding platforms (CFPs), and more Asian CFPs directly publishing their numbers. As we will present in this report, market growth continued accelerating in 2014 and we are forecasting a further doubling of the market in 2015. We have witnessed additional platforms coming online across asset classes and methodologies. Real estate and small to medium sized enterprise (SME) financing platforms are drawing a lot of attention; crowdfunding for startups is on the rise; and crowdfunding for social impact causes is as relevant as ever. Lending-based crowdfunding continues its upward climb as both Prosper and LendingClub have surpassed, in 2014 alone, the $2bn and $4bn mark, respectively, in originations. This year we surveyed approximately 1,250 CFPs, up from 813 CFPs in 2012. The number of new platforms and their distribution are supporting crowdfunding’s development as a truly global phenomena. [1] Massolution uses “annual growth rate” as a measure of year-over-year change using the prior year as a base for expressing percentage change from one year to the next. 8 Copyright © 2010-2015 Crowdsourcing LLC.

  • Crowdfunding in Asia
    Crowdfunding in Asia May 2018 Introducing the first free directory of crowdfunding platforms across Asia. The data is based on the AlliedCrowds Capital Finder, a database of over 7,000 alternative finance capital providers across emerging markets. Our data has been used by organizations like FSD Asia, UNDP, World Green Economy Organization, GIZ, World Bank, and others in order to provide unique, actionable insights into the world of emerging market alternative finance. This is the latest of our regular reports on alternative finance in emerging markets; you can find all previous reports here. Crowdfunding rose in prominence in the post-financial crisis years (starting in 2012), and for good reason: a global credit crunch limited the amount of funding available to entrepreneurs and small businesses. Since then, crowdfunding has grown rapidly around the world. Crowdfunding is especially consequential in countries where SMEs find it difficult to raise capital to start or grow their businesses. This is the case in many Asian countries; according to the SME Finance Forum, there is a $2.3 trillion MSME credit gap in East Asia and the Pacific. Crowdfunding can help to fill this gap by offering individuals and small businesses an alternative source of capital. This can come in the form of donation-based as well as lending-based (peer-to-peer or peer-to-business) crowdfunding. In order to help entrepreneurs and small business owners to find the crowdfunding platform that’s right for them, we are releasing the first publicly available list of all crowdfunding platforms across Asia. The report is split into two key sections: the first one is an overview of crowdfunding platforms, and how active they are across the largest markets on the continent.

  • Crowdsourcing: Today and Tomorrow
    Crowdsourcing: Today and Tomorrow An Interactive Qualifying Project Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science by Fangwen Yuan Jun Liang Zhaokun Xue Approved Professor Sonia Chernova Advisor 1 Abstract This project focuses on crowdsourcing, the practice of outsourcing activities that are traditionally performed by a small group of professionals to an unknown, large community of individuals. Our study examines how crowdsourcing has become an important form of labor organization, what major forms of crowdsourcing exist currently, and which trends of crowdsourcing will have potential impacts on the society in the future. The study is conducted through literature study on the derivation and development of crowdsourcing, through examination on current major crowdsourcing platforms, and through surveys and interviews with crowdsourcing participants on their experiences and motivations. 2 Table of Contents Chapter 1 Introduction ................................................................................................................................. 8 1.1 Definition of Crowdsourcing ............................................................................................................... 8 1.2 Research Motivation ........................................................................................................................... 8 1.3 Research Objectives ...........................................................................................................................

Obtaining traditional financing from banks has become increasingly prohibitive. Venture capital funds and angel investors seek businesses that provide fast growth and high re- turns. Cultivating a sustainable small business that prioritizes people and the environment generally does not lend itself to these conditions. A recent survey by the National Small Business Association (NSBA) found that nearly half of small-business respondents said they needed funds and were unable to find any willing sources, be it loans, credit cards or investors.1 Additionally, the novelty of small green businesses makes them more risky and less appealing for traditional sources of capital. Environmentally focused entrepreneurs often have little choice but to compromise their mission or the direction of their company in an attempt to secure financing.

  • Crowdlending in Asia: Landscape and Investor Characteristics
    Crowdlending in Asia: Landscape and Investor Characteristics November 2020 2 Table of Contents Overview 3 Methodology Overview 4 Methodology Statement 4 Crowdlending in Asia 5 Text Analytics and Insights 7 Crowdlending Investor Characteristics 15 Survey Analysis and Insights 16 Crowdlending in Asia: Landscape and Investor Characteristics | Findings and Insights | Findings and insights 3 Overview Multiple issues arise with the emergence of crowdlending; these pertain to regulation, risk management and investors’ behaviour. Compared to the non-investment crowdfunding model, crowdlending is the dominant model in the world. As of 2019, crowdlending accounted for more than 95% of the funds raised worldwide, with Asian countries – particularly China – in the lead. In early 2020, China had the largest volume of money-raising transactions from crowdfunding totalling more than 200 billion USD. However, given the industry’s potential growth in Asian countries, multiple issues with crowdfunding practices need to be resolved. Media coverage on crowdlending is increasingly widespread, as seen from how it has become a buzzword within the last few years. Media attention on crowdlending can help us understand media awareness, media framing, and public understanding of the topic. Further, there is a lack of information on distinct characteristics and decision making of crowdfunding investors in the field of investor behaviour. We analysed the news coverage on crowdlending in Asia spanning a ten-year period from 2009 to 2019. We also surveyed crowdlending investors to understand their behaviours when interacting with crowdlending platforms. Our analyses provide insights into the challenges and opportunities of the crowdlending industry in Asia. They also reveal crowdlending investors’ behaviour.
