ANALYSIS
Our definition of crowdfunding in the developing world includes only projects
that are directly located in developing countries [ex-China].
Crowdfunding in the developing world is poised for an explosive growth period
(136% yoy). While the market is still in a nascent stage, the demographics, infrastructure
investments, and favorable trends in the adoption of technology, means it is on track to
catch up quickly with the west. While some countries have readily embraced the model,
there are many which stand to benefit from facilitating crowdfunding for their economies.
Countries which are struggling to channel remittances through legal channels should
explore engaging with diaspora to support crowdfunding projects.
Crowdfunding has especially been a fantastic medium for raising funds for
emergencies. After the Nepal earthquake in April, there has been a surge in
projects and money raised for the victims.
While this space has primarily been donation and lending, we expect equity
and reward based sites to drive growth in the future.
Who are AlliedCrowds?
AlliedCrowds is an aggregator anddirectory for crowdfunding platforms
(over 100+) in the 139 countriesdefined by the World Bank as eitherlower- or middle-income. The WBestimates that crowdfunding in thedeveloping world could grow to $96billion by 2025, yet there is littleconsolidated information about thespace. Our efforts (which includeshelping and building platforms) aimto make information more accessible,and greatly increase capital flows tothe developing world.

As donation based
crowdfundingcontinues to
accelerate,
countries below
the trend line need
to emulate their
peers to capitalize
on innovation in the
donation space.

Top 10 Countries
The earthquake in Nepal has demonstrated the tremendous
ability to mobilize funds through crowdfunding. The rest
of these countries have consistent and well developed
crowdfunding infrastructure relative to their peer groups.
Top Sectors
The stength in crowdfunding lies in the ability to quickly and
efficiently direct money flows. This works extremely well in
the context of disaster recovery. At the moment charitable
categories dominate the space, however, we expect this
trend to change as regulation adjusts to crowdfunding.
Top Platforms
The average founding year of sites in this universe is 2011.
Kiva, GlobalGiving, and BetterPlace were founded in
2005, 2002 and 2007 respectively. We expect to see
new players emerge as this space continutes to mature.

By type
As the space continues to evolve, expect lending and
reward to grow in more importance over the coming
year. Equity will follow suit once regulators garner a
clearer understanding of the space, and introduce
supportive legislation.

ABOUT NE PAL
There was devastation in Nepal in April, after the massive 7.9
magnitude earthquake struck the landlocked country. It placed
a severe strain on the country’s infrastructure. Internationaldevelopment organizations immediately jumped into drive relief
efforts. It was critical to mobilize funds as quickly as possible,
and this is where Crowdfunding sites really stepped up. There
was a tremendous response by the major crowdfunding sites
to raise funds for the earthquake victims, and as our analysis
shows, we forecast crowdfunding in Nepal to cross the USD 73
million mark over the next year.
HOW YOU CAN HELP THE PEOPLE OF NEPAL
We have put together a resource page where you can follow the latest
news about relief efforts. We have also aggregated the information for major
development organizations who are working in Nepal as well as a directory
of crowdfunding platforms.
Crowdfunders stepped into helpthe Earthquake victims in Nepal
3 5March April May
The relief effors of the crowdfunding community in
the aftermath of the Nepal earthquake demonstrated
crowdfunding’s distinct ability to mobilize money for a
target cause. Crowdfunding offers a fast and efficient
method for transfering aid to disaster hit regions. Many
traditional charities lack the organizational structure to
execute on such an efficient scale.
