In the Global Crowdfunding Market, some key challenges include regulatory complexity and uncertainty, fraud and security risks, competition among crowdfunding platforms, and maintaining investor trust. Regulatory requirements can vary significantly across different countries, making it difficult for platforms to navigate compliance issues. Fraudulent activities such as fake campaigns or misuse of funds can harm the reputation of crowdfunding platforms and deter potential investors. Moreover, the increasing number of crowdfunding platforms has led to heightened competition, making it challenging for newer platforms to stand out and attract both project creators and investors. Building and maintaining trust with investors is crucial for the long-term sustainability of crowdfunding platforms, as any breaches in security or ethical concerns can lead to a loss of confidence and participation in the market.
The Global Crowdfunding Market is being primarily driven by the increasing accessibility of crowdfunding platforms, which allows individuals and businesses to easily create and promote fundraising campaigns.

These factors combined are expected to continue propelling the Global Crowdfunding Market forward in the coming years.

In the United States, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) oversees crowdfunding activities through the implementation of the JOBS Act, which allows companies to raise capital from accredited and non-accredited investors through online platforms. In the European Union, the European Commission has implemented the European Crowdfunding Service Providers Regulation (ECSPR), aiming to harmonize crowdfunding rules across member states and provide a regulatory framework for crowdfunding platforms. Other countries, such as Canada and Australia, have also introduced specific regulations to govern crowdfunding activities, ensuring both investor protection and market integrity. Overall, government policies in the Global Crowdfunding Market are evolving to strike a balance between promoting innovation and protecting investors from potential risks.
