  • Financial segment accounts for the majority share of the market
  • Key vendors – Corporate Trading, Innovative Market Analysis, and Interactive Data

Technavio’s market research analysts predict the global stock market software industry to grow at a CAGR of more than 8% between 2016 and 2020. The augmented demand for asset-based financing is expected to boost growth in this market during the forecast period. Asset-based financing provides structured working capital and term loans secured by accounts receivable, machinery, equipment, inventory, and real estate. In the asset-based financing process, the asset is taken over by the lender in case the loan is not repaid. Asset-based finance currently enables the hassle-free functioning for a large number of businesses and SMEs in Europe. During 2015, EMEA accounted for around 40% of the total market share. The augmented demand for stock market software or trading software from several countries, which are aimed at improving the work efficiency in local trade organizations, and its high rate of adoption in the financial sector to analyze the market and take business decisions are some of the factors that will boost market growth in the EMEA region.
