Challenge: Lack of skilled professionals with proficiency in supply chain finance
The shortage of experienced personnel with supply chain finance expertise can be a significant barrier for organizations in the supply chain finance industry, as supply chain finance necessitates a specialized skill set that integrates knowledge of finance, logistics, and supply chain management. Professionals in this profession must comprehend the complexities of global trade, the various financing options accessible, and the capacity to properly manage risk. Companies may face a number of issues due to a scarcity of competent people with expertise in supply chain financing. As a result, organizations may struggle to develop new solutions and react to changing market conditions, which can lead to a lack of innovation in the industry. Therefore, the shortage of skilled professionals with proficiency in supply chain finance could hamper the growth of the market.
Global Supply Chain Finance Market - By Provider
Based on provider, the global supply chain finance market is segmented into banks, trade finance house, and others. Banks coverage is expected to be the fastest-growing coverage segment during the forecast period. Banks are still prominent players in the supply chain finance business, and their dominance can be attributable to a variety of factors. Banks have a wealth of experience in offering trade finance solutions, including supply chain financing. They have established relationships with exporters, importers, and other supply chain participants and have the knowledge to manage the risks involved with cross-border transactions.
Global Supply Chain Finance Market - By Distribution Channel
Based on distribution channel, the global supply chain finance market is split into large enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The SMEs segment dominated the market and accounted for a significant share of the global revenue. Smaller enterprises commonly have little access to loans and other forms of interim financing to cover the cost of goods they intend to buy or sell. Supply chain finance bridged the financial gap between importers and exporters by providing short- to medium-term working capital in small and medium-sized enterprises, which ensures the security of the stock or service being exported or imported with accompanying products or structures that mitigate risk.
Global Supply Chain Finance Market - By Region
The global supply chain finance market is dominated by the North America region. North America is anticipated to cover a significant share over the forecast period. This is due to the presence of a large number of firms and retailers who are implementing supply chain finance solutions to expand their worldwide supply and logistics network. North America thus dominates the supply chain finance market growth. Furthermore, as enterprises have expanded geographically, they have to reassess their existing supply chain and logistic network. The need to manage safety throughout this supply chain review is likely to drive the supply chain finance market in the United States.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Global Supply Chain Finance Market
The global supply chain finance market has grown in recent years; but, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the market growth dropped in 2020. This was connected to a rise in remote working and social distancing, which created a problem for supply chain finance in financial organizations in obtaining data from a variety of places and sources. All of these elements enhanced the possibility of danger in the form of an unregistered conduit to communicate misreported trades. However, organizations were increasingly turning to supply chain financing to ensure the safety of their supply chain operations. This, in turn, drove the expansion of the supply chain financing business during the epidemic.
Competitive Landscape

The key players are Asian Development Bank, Bank of America Corporation, Citigroup, Inc., Eulers Herms (Allianz Trade), HSBC Group, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc., Royal Bank of Scotland Plc, Standard Chartered, Axis Bank Limited, State Bank of India, ICICI Bank Limited, and HDFC Bank Limited.
