The regtech market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $16.18 billion in 2024 to $18.92 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising need for faster transactions, a rise in disposable income and growing cost of compliance.
The regtech market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $33.81 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.6%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising number of fraudulent activities, strategic partnerships and collaborations and rising trend of digitization. Major trends in the forecast period include use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, focus on machine learning and natural language processing-based products, focus on cloud-based solutions, focus regulatory intelligence platforms and focus on blockchain-based platforms.
The anticipated increase in fraudulent activities, particularly in the financial sector such as money laundering, is poised to drive the growth of the RegTech market in the forecast period. The surge in fraudulent activities necessitates robust RegTech frameworks for financial organizations, empowering risk and compliance teams to effectively manage the escalating challenges of regulatory compliance and increasingly sophisticated breaches. A report by LexisNexis Risk Solutions in 2022 revealed a rise in the costs of fraud for U.S. and Canadian financial services companies. U.S. financial services companies experienced a 16.2% increase, paying $4.23 for every $1 lost to fraud, compared to $3.64. Similarly, Canadian financial services companies saw a 19.6% increase, from $3.16 in 2020 to $3.78 in 2022. Consequently, the growing instances of fraudulent activities underscore the heightened demand for the RegTech market.
The escalating trend of digitization is a driving force behind the growth of the RegTech market. Businesses increasingly recognize the essential role of digitization in achieving success, leveraging digital technologies to transform business models and create new value-producing opportunities. Global spending on the digital transformation of business practices, products, and organizations reached USD 1.8 trillion in 2022, marking a significant 17.6% increase over 2021. Thus, the pervasive trend of digitization is a catalyst for the growth of the RegTech market.
Major companies in the RegTech market are concentrating on developing innovations, such as artificial intelligence, to enhance corporate loan credit risk assessments. Artificial intelligence (AI) is a branch of computer science focused on creating machines and software that can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence. For example, in April 2022, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, a central banking institution in China, launched the Regtech Knowledge Hub to promote the adoption of regulatory technology (RegTech) within the financial sector. This hub offers an online platform for banks and RegTech providers to exchange success stories and implementation experiences. It includes use cases like digital ledger technology for foreign exchange settlement, alternative credit risk assessments for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), and AI-based corporate loan evaluations. Additionally, the Hub serves as a central repository for RegTech-related information and encourages stakeholders to remain informed through email alerts.
Artificial Intelligence stands out as a significant trend gaining popularity in the RegTech market. Companies within the RegTech market are strategically focusing on introducing AI-powered products to expand their global customer base.
