MARKET DYNAMICS

Market Dynamics include driving and restraining factors, opportunities and challenges stating the market conditions.

Driving Factors

Increasing Complexity in Financial Processes to Drive Market Advancement

One of the key driving factors in the Financial Consolidation Software market growth is Increasing Complexity in Financial Processes. Complexity that is continuously increasing in financial processes is one of the key factors that define growth in the financial consolidation software market. With businesses going regional and across industries, risks arise in dealing with different financial structures and currencies, rules and regulations. For instance, large companies like multinational companies have to aggregate data from a number of their subsidiaries and these may be using different reporting standards: IFRS, GAAP or the local laws. The existence of these factors makes the whole process even more complicated including mergers and acquisitions since they bring in new organizational units and accounting systems.

Demand for Real-Time Financial Insights to Expand the Market

Financial consolidation software is experiencing demand growth because businesses require real-time financial data for decision making. In the current and dynamic business world, companies need timely and summarized financial information to enable them to think and act quickly. Real time tracking is very advantageous as it allows business managers to keep track of their financial performance, trends, and fluctuations and act fast to protect or gain competitiveness. The conventional approaches to consolidating financial statements require the use of a significant amount of manual input and produce undesirable consequences such as inefficiencies, which include slow decision-making processes.

Restraining Factor

High Initial Costs Poses Potential Impediments to Market Growth

At the same time, one of the biggest issues affecting the consolidation of financial solutions is the high acquisition costs that entails in terms of software solutions for consolidation. For SMEs, costs of licenses, software customization, integration with existing ERP and accounting systems, and infrastructure can be very prohibitive at the inception stage. Moreover, training of employees to enable them to adapt to the new software always prove to be very expensive, thus bringing out the cost factor.

Opportunity

Increasing Demand for Automation to create opportunity for the product in the Market

There is a growing need for organizations to look for the method of eliminating the need to engage many personnel in financial transactions to follow strict bureaucratic procedure chains, improve efficiency, and accuracy. This software facilitates automation, usually in the areas such as intercompany eliminations, consolidation of data and compilation of reports required for compliance purposes among others which would otherwise be very expensive to effect manually. Automate business has become a trend in the Finance departments, which is creating a good growth area for the software market.

Challenge

Complexity of Implementation could be a potential challenge for consumer

Most organizations have their existing financial systems, and often these systems are not compatible with the current-state financial consolidation software. As a result of this integration challenge, there are related delays, costly additions and complications during the adoption cycle. The financial consolidation software can also be mainly configured to a particular organization, therefore it is not a cookie-cutter model. Such complexities are likely to result not only in long hours of deployment but also in high costs of the software.
