By vertical, the BFSI segment holds the largest market size.

The value and advancements of technologies are increasingly getting acknowledged by financial institutions to improve the customer experience and protect themselves and their customers against the consequences of a breach in security. These institutions also deeply understand how digital identity solutions could be used to combat the threats posed by fraud and identity theft. Anytime, anywhere banking is in demand by customers due to which BFSI organizations are deploying various services, such as internet banking, mobile banking, and stock trading through web and mobile applications. Furthermore, increasing instances of identity theft and fraud drive the demand for robust digital identity solutions in the BFSI (Banking, Financial Services, and Insurance) sector.

Regulatory compliance requirements, such as Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations, push financial institutions to adopt advanced digital identity solutions for secure customer onboarding and transaction verification.

By offering, services registered the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Digital identity service is the assistance offered by type vendors to help customers efficiently use and maintain digital identity solutions. Hence, various vendors focus on providing managed services in the digital identity solutions market, whereas other vendors outsource these services. Services in the digital identity solutions market become critical as they support the proper functioning of software-based solutions. Digital identity services comprise technical support services that require effective integration of digital identity solutions. Moreover, technical expertise is needed to maintain and update digital identity software. The demand for these services is directly related to the adoption level of digital identity solutions. The adoption of digital identity solutions is increasing due to an increasing need to secure business-sensitive applications from unauthorized access. Managed services are used to decrease the operational overhead and risk and help manage the complex network infrastructure of organizations.

By organization size, SMEs registered the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The need for efficient customer data protection, sales generation, new hires, cost-cutting, enhancing customer experience, and business development are the factors expected to drive the digital identity solutions market in the future. Digital identity solutions are becoming necessary for SMEs, as they are often at high-security risk and do not follow formal identity management policies. The increasing demand for security, authentication, and verification from SMEs for improving their productivity and pooling of knowledge base has triggered vendors to provide a solution at a low cost. The cloud deployment mode offers a feasible solution for the adoption of technology. The cloud-based solution is developed keeping in mind the limited budget of SMEs. In the coming years, the low cost of digital identity solutions is expected to help SMEs worldwide deploy the solution. SMEs' adoption and acceptance of digital identity solutions will help expand the customer base and enhance business efficiency. Governments are also taking initiatives to protect SMEs in their respective countries.

By region, North America holds the largest market size.

Mandatory identity management policies, investments from various industries, including BFSI and retail, and developing technologies, including smart infrastructure, smart cities, ePassport, and evisa, are anticipated to fuel the growth of the North American market for digital identity solutions. As an illustration, Gemalto has created an ID verification solution for banks that helps simplify the onboarding process. ePassports for onboarding that employ digital IDs based on facial and fingerprint identification are also being developed in North America. These activities are anticipated to propel the North American market for digital identification solutions as a whole.

The development of government initiatives, such as smart infrastructure, smart cities, digital identity-based driver’s licenses, and the use of digital identity by the US police, to track criminals suspected of major and minor crimes, as well as to find out missing persons, are also driving the need of digital identity across North America.

By region, Asia Pacific registered the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Technology for digital identification solutions has evolved beyond the BFSI and healthcare sectors to the government, defense, airport, and border control. Banks in the Asia-Pacific region are implementing methods for furthering the development of digital identification solutions, such as new product innovations and collaborations. Asia Pacific banks and businesses are creating digital identification solutions using cutting-edge technology like blockchain, AI, and cloud. The market for digital identification solutions in the Asia Pacific is driven by these activities by governments and businesses in various nations.

The region is expected to invest more in deploying digital identity technology due to the increasing threat of identity and access breaches, resulting in financial and reputational losses. These initiatives are boosting the market growth.
