"Smart Strategies, Giving Speed to your Growth Trajectory"
The U.K. core banking software market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 16.5% during the forecast period.
The U.K. has witnessed a prominent rise in the adoption of core banking software by financial institutions. In 2020, U.K.’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) proposed a new guideline on cloud computing technology. The adoption of cloud technology helps banks and financial institutions to perform their operations efficiently and reduces operational cost.
Significant Adoption of Digital Technology to Propel Market Expansion
The growing adoption of digital banking in the U.K. would open the core banking software market to a large number of core banking platform suppliers. The software provides business swiftness to financial institutions, giving them an edge to compete in highly competitive and complex market. The development of products using modern core banking system architecture helps banking systems to build a transparent, efficient, and inclusive financial system. This architecture is cloud-native, which offers lower operating and maintenance cost, due to less dependence on hardware. For instance, in May 2022, SaaScada, a U.K. based cloud native core banking platform provider, has raised USD 3 million from over ten investors for seed funding. Through this amount, the company aims to develop new products and features for core banking platforms.
Rise in Number of Acquisitions to Drive the Market Growth
Multiple banking infrastructure and payment services providers are engaged in mergers and acquisitions to provide efficient services to fintech companies. For instance, in March 2022, LHV U.K., a banking infrastructure provider, acquired core banking software start-up Tuum. Through this acquisition, LHV U.K. aimed to upgrade its core banking platform.
Further, in April 2022, Oxbury Bank, a start-up bank in the U.K., acquired core banking software provider Naqoda to strive with new start-ups and legacy vendors. Thus, the rise in significant numbers of acquisition activities in the country would drive the U.K. core banking software market growth at a rapid pace.
