Fireside Chat
Breslow said that after the 2008 crisis Canada saw, across all its provinces, small business loan growth fall while GDP went up suggesting small firms are more underserved than previously.
He said that with an underserved market the opportunity for online lending is huge in Canada.
He added that OnDeck’s Canadian online lending customers are similar to their US equivalents yet online lending is currently serving a smaller amount of their credit needs.
Keynote
Australian fintech industry is very organised compared with other countries. The proactive approach means that the government stays away
Australia’s SME lending market has grown at CAGR of 151%. That’s just online lenders. The growth is huge.
Expect consolidation – in the US six have shut down the past year. This is a business that advantages the scale player. If you fail to reach that you’re in trouble.
