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 <a href="/goto?url=https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.smefinanceforum.org/data-sites/msme-finance-gap&sa=D&ust=1525254606760000" target="_blank">SME Finance Forum</a>, 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. Each investor in the overview section has a more in-depth profile, listed below the overview. These profiles offer more actionable information about the platforms: where they are active, a brief description about them, their office locations, as well as other useful data points. We believe information is a crucial missing piece of the alternative financial ecosystem across emerging markets, and we have compiled the <a href="/goto?url=https://www.google.com/url?q=https://alliedcrowds.com/capital-finder&sa=D&ust=1525254606761000" target="_blank">Capital Finder database </a>and this directory to attempt to remedy this gap. Additionally, we’ve recently released the <a href="/goto?url=https://www.google.com/url?q=https://sdg.alliedcrowds.com/&sa=D&ust=1525254606761000" target="_blank">SDG Capital Finder</a>, the first searchable database for identifying funders that are aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals. This directory is intended to help students, researchers, journalists, analysts, government officials, startups, investors, and many others to get a better picture of crowdfunding activity across Asia.
