Alternative finance surpassed €1bn in 2018 in the Netherlands as sector growth continues, according to a report from Stichting MKB Financiering (a public-private organization founded by the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs).

Ronald Kleverlaan, a representative from Stichting and note alternative finance expert, commented on the report:

“The Dutch Alternative Finance market has reached a tipping point and is now widely being accepted as an added value to the SME financing landscape by companies, banks and policy makers. Because of the many different AltFin providers the biggest challenge in the next couple of years will be to educate financial advisors to find the most reliable and best fitted solutions for their clients.”
