Digital Signature Market Dynamics

Driver: Growing use of e-Signatures led to the need to eradicate fraud and signature forgery

The green movement has taken hold for the past decade across the globe, resulting in the shift of governments, corporate offices, and enterprises toward full or partial paperless workflows. Various offices started using electronic documentation, saving a massive amount of paper. eSign has been in the industry for several years, but COVID-19 has proved to be the reactant in increasing its adoption. Electronic signatures provide a secure and reliable system for remote people to sign approvals, contracts, and other documents easily and efficiently. A critical factor driving the demand for digital signatures is the need to eradicate fraud and signature forgery. With the growing use of eSignature services, eSignature scams and phishing attacks that compromise a user’s personal and financial information have risen. Such cyber incidents have elevated the need for digital signatures. Several regulation frameworks control the use of e-signatures. In the US, for instance, the Federal Reserve Bank, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) have all released electronic signature guidance that enables more forms, documents, and transactions than ever before electronic signatures.

Restraint: Variation in digital signature rules and regulations across regions

Digital signature solutions automate the business processes for bringing about digital transformation; at the same time, users expect business processes to be easy-to-use, to be able to provide flexible accessibility with high security and to be compatible with all rules and regulations. The digital signature provides security and boosts trust in a business process, playing a crucial role in business transactional processes. Digital signature technology is related to documents that contain financial information, designs, product and service-related information, defense strategies, government policies, and other important documents. SMEs are focused on satisfying regional needs using digital signature technology. The government’s rules and regulations and the judiciary's acceptance of digital signatures as witnesses or proofs vary geographically. Region-wise, new rules and regulations are emerging. Changing rules and regulations are becoming a challenge for the digital signature market.

Opportunity: Growing number of partnerships and acquisitions

The digital signature market has witnessed unprecedented traction in recent years. There has been tremendous growth in inorganic growth strategies, such as partnerships, agreements, and acquisitions, among IT companies to establish themselves as digital signature solutions and service providers with competitive advantages. The latest trends show that the key players follow various inorganic strategies to stay competitive in the digital signature market. The demand for digital signature solutions and services has become one of the foremost concerns for security-centric organizations. Hence, the market offers abundant opportunities for digital signature providers to sell their digital signature solutions and services.

Challenge: Intensely entrenched traditional business practices

A long history of working with traditional paper-based business processes is entrenched deeply in the working culture of all businesses, which are reluctant to change their working patterns within a short interval. The other major challenges in adopting digital signature technology across all organizational processes include the lack of trust and ease of implementation, otherwise present in convenient business solutions. Traditional business practices need to route documents signed by all signatories, with additional suggestions/changes required; this process takes a lot of time and effort. Overcoming this deeply entrenched traditional business practice is becoming a hindrance or a challenge in the digital signature market.

By region, North America to account for the largest market size during the forecast period

North America is expected to be the largest contributor in terms of the global digital signature market size. North America is the most advanced region in terms of security technology adoption and infrastructure. According to the World Bank, the internet usage rate in the US was 91% in 2020. In the US, a comprehensive digital government strategy aimed at delivering better digital services to citizens was launched and built on three main goals, including enabling the American people and an increasingly mobile workforce to access high-quality digital government information and services anywhere, anytime, on any device. The growing concerns for protecting critical communication infrastructure and sensitive data have increased government intervention in recent years. Various security-related regulatory compliances control the digital signature market. Title 21 CFR Part 11 is a part of the Code of Federal Regulations that establishes the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations on electronic records and electronic signatures. The region also has the largest number of digital signature solution vendors. The vendors are engaging in partnerships and collaborations to expand their presence in the digital signature market. In April 2020, GlobalSign joined DocuSign’s agreement cloud partner ecosystem to deliver globally trusted digital identities. Cloud-based services from GlobalSign and DocuSign enable enterprises to leverage GlobalSign’s digital signing service integration to the DocuSign Trust Service Provider ecosystem. Countries analyzed for the digital signature market in this region are the US and Canada.
