The global biometric for banking and financial services market size was USD 5027.4 million in 2021 and is projected to touch USD 10710 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 11.2% during the forecast period.

Biometrics is one of the strategies that banks are actively pursuing since the technology helps to create a secure banking environment by lowering the incidence of identity fraud, generating a transaction audit trail, and safeguarding financial data. The move towards biometrics is also being fueled by the ineffectiveness of more conventional security mechanisms like PINs, passwords, and tokens, particularly in the face of increasingly sophisticated hacker attacks. There is a considerable need for robust security solutions, such as those incorporating biometrics, as a result of clients of banking services becoming more and more aware of the limitations of PINs and passwords as a form of protection against sophisticated bank fraud and cyber threats.

Additionally, the recent constant rise in password intrusions is a reflection of the lax security surrounding the usage of passwords as an access method. Banks are choosing to invest in robust authentication procedures in response to the growing requirement to provide security against the rising incidences of fraudulent transactions and identity theft, as well as the fraud's ever-expanding scope. It has been segregated into various types, such as voice biometric, face biometric, fingerprint biometrics, hand vein biometrics, and others.
