SME Banking - Industry Analysis
Most small business owners who stated they were self-employed or started their own businesses in the last two years use their personal accounts as their primary business accounts. Undoubtedly, this is partly because incumbent banks have not historically built out enough dedicated features to warrant opening separate accounts, and for many SME owners their personal and business lives are closely interrelated. However, digital banks are slowly gaining market share as they are either primarily focused on SMEs or significantly focused on SMEs, from launch and/or soon after.
The SME banking industry analysis also covers:
- Mergers and acquisitions
- Timeline
SME Banking - Value Chain Analysis
The SME banking value chain consists of four segments: idea, launch, grow, and ongoing management.
Idea: The idea phase covers the early stages of thinking about starting a business, and what that business might be. Reaching consumers at this early stage presents the maximum opportunity to form a long and lasting relationship with that business, by offering them tips, advice, and guidance on how to avoid common pitfalls for startups and think through what starting a business will entail.

“COVID-19 has caused significant interference to our business and the COVID-19 intelligence from GlobalData has helped us reach better decisions around strategy. These two highlights have helped enormously to understand the projections into the future concerning our business units, we also utilise the project database to source new projects for Liebherr-Werk to use as an additional source to pitch for new business.”
Your daily news has saved me a lot of time and keeps me up-to-date with what is happening in the market, I like that you almost always have a link to the source origin. We also use your market data in our Strategic Business Process to support our business decisions. By having everything in one place on the Intelligence Center it has saved me a lot of time versus looking on different sources, the alert function also helps with this.
Having used several other market research companies, I find that GlobalData manages to provide that ‘difficult-to-get’ market data that others can’t, as well as very diverse and complete consumer surveys.
