Published: Nov 2023 | Report Code: OMR2027903 | Category : Software & Solutions | Delivery Format: /

Digital signature market is anticipated to grow at an exponential CAGR of 30.5% during the forecast period. Rising internet penetration, growing e-commerce industry, and increasing need for online documentation and safety requirements are some of the major factors driving the global digital signature market.  

Recent developments in internet and internet technologies have altered and enabled new ways in which organizations manage, transmit, and acquire information. Contracts, legal documentation, and many other business processes require a series of exchanges using electronic communication such as e-mail before final sign off. Therefore, digital signatures are gaining prominence in the internet business environment especially after digital signature laws giving digital signatures the same legal validity as handwritten signature. Increased online transactions have also played an integral part in the abundant adoption of digital signature solutions among industries. 

However, the high price associated with different types of digital signature could negatively impact the growth of the global digital signature market. The high cost is attributed to the institutional overhead cost and subscriber and relying party costs. The institutional overhead cost comprises cost of establishing and utilizing certification authorities, repositories, and other important services, as well as assuring quality in the performance of their functions. The high cost of digital signature makes it difficult for the small and mid-sized companies to implement them, which could hinder the growth of the global digital signature market.

Segmental Outlook

The global digital signature market is segmented based on offering, deployment model, and end-user industry. Based on offering, the market is segmented into hardware, software and services. Based on deployment model, the market is segmented into cloud-based and on-premises. Based on end-user industry, the market is segmented into BFSI, government, healthcare, oil & gas, military & defense, logistics & transportation, research and education, other end-user industries (real estate, manufacturing, legal, IT, and Telecom)

BFSI to Exhibit Significant Growth in Global Digital Signature Market

BFSI industry is one of the major and fastest growing sectors for digital signature market. BFSI is among the most vital sectors in any economy, as it is the core of a country’s growth. The boom in smartphones and high-speed internet has initiated digitalization in the financial services. Presently, nearly all banks have developed their own mobile application and are investing heavily to continue to enhance application ergonomics and improve functionality beyond the most basic operations. In addition, the usage of mobile terminals allows financial institutions to collect exponential volumes of data in all formats such as figures, texts, images, audio, geolocation, and all type of structured and unstructured data. Likewise, customer awareness concerning their data is increasing and has been raised by new provisions in regard to the right to data portability. This has increased the demand for better database performances, storage capacities and improved security in financial institutions. Therefore, digital signatures are increasingly being used in BFSI to prevent fraud, promote technological innovations, and enhance data integrity, scalability, and transparency in banking and finance sectors. Thus, the BFSI sector is expected to exhibit abundant opportunities for digital signature during the forecast period.

Regional Outlook

The global digital signature market is further segmented based on geography, including North America (the US and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa and Latin America). Among all the regions, North America held considerable share in the global market.

North America Held Considerable Share in the Global Digital Signature Market 

The increased shift of organizations toward cloud-based solution adoption, rapid mobile adoption, and the presence of major players across the region is a key factor driving the growth of the regional market. Government initiatives related to e-signatures, such as the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA) and the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN), permitted the usage of e-sign for every transaction, thereby playing a crucial role in driving the market. Trade deals, like the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA), also encourage the usage of e-signatures. The high adoption of digital signature across the different industrial verticals across the region is further contributing to the regional market share.
