KEY FINDINGS

COVID-19 IMPACT

Decreased Consumer Demand to Thrash Market Performance

Over the past few months, the majority of sectors in the world have experienced unfavorable effects. This can be ascribed to the enormous disruptions that various precautionary lockdowns and other limitations that were imposed by governing agencies around the world caused in their respective production and supply-chain operations. The same holds true for the worldwide market for collateralized debt obligations.

Additionally, consumer demand has now decreased as people have been more intent on cutting down non-essential expenses from their individual budgets as the general economic condition of the majority of people has been adversely impacted by this outbreak. Over the anticipated time frame, the aforementioned factors are anticipated to have a negative impact on the revenue trajectory of the market. However, the industry is anticipated to rebound in line with this when individual regulating agencies start to lift these enforced lockdowns.

LATEST TRENDS

Large businesses use structured finance products the most because they provide bigger credit ceilings and longer tenors than other traditional forms of borrowing. The capacity of large companies with various organizational structures and business models to raise capital more easily and affordably thanks to the availability of a wide range of financial instruments is what is anticipated to drive demand during the projection period. Due to rising penetration in emerging economies, the medium enterprise application category is anticipated to experience considerable growth over the course of the projected period.

DRIVING FACTORS

Unsophisticated Funding to Fuel Market Performance

Investors are typically required to supply structured finance since it is necessary for significant capital injection into a firm or organization. Unlike a regular loan, which can be transferred between different types of debt, structured financial products are nearly invariably non-transferable. Corporations, governments, and financial intermediaries are increasingly utilizing structured financing and securitization to control risk, build financial markets, broaden clientele, and create new funding instruments for complicated, developing, and emerging markets. Because of the risk transfer from sellers to buyers of the structured products, these entities' use of structured financing alters cash flows and changes the liquidity of financial portfolios. Financial firms have also benefited from using structured financing methods to enable them delete certain assets from their balance sheets. CDOs are anticipated to boost structured finance market growth.

Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDOs) to Support Market Sales

Structured finance products include collateralized debt obligations (CDOs). It is a debt that is supported by a collection of assets and collateral (security). Real land, business property, or personal property like furniture, cars, or other assets are all acceptable forms of security. The three primary parts of a CDO are the service provider, the originator, and the investor or lender. The fact that CDOs interest rates are typically greater than those of standard savings or money market accounts is another advantage of CDOs. You can find CDs that offer large interest on your deposit, depending on the financial institution and the CDO's length.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Monopolistic Market Structure to Impede Market Expansion

Lack of coordination is caused by the existence of several financial institutions and government involvement in powers that control these organizations. Numerous financial organizations hold dominant positions in the market. Two companies that have seized a significant portion of the mutual fund and life insurance markets are LIC and UTI. These massive systems could result in poor or ineffective financial management.
