The global identity verification market is expected to register a CAGR of around 16% over the period of 2021-2027. The global identity verification market is rising on account of the growing digitalization, growing uses of digital identities among industries, and the increasing frequency of identity theft and cyberattacks. Increasing regulation and mandatory compliance with standards in all industries, especially in the financial sector, is expected to create many opportunities for market participants. Moreover, the increasing frequency of identity theft and cyberattacks are one of the most prominent factors driving the adoption of identity verification. For instance, according to the FBI’s 2021 Internet Crime Report, record 847,376 cybercrime complaints were reported to the FBI by the general public, up 7% from 2020. Identity verification is used by businesses to ensure that a user or customer provides information related to the identity of a real person. Verifying an individual’s identity is essential to prove that there is a real person behind the transaction or process. Scammers create fake profiles before misusing their business, such as defaulting online loans, creating multiple accounts to exploit promotion systems, or triggering affiliate rewards.
Experian Information Solutions Inc., GB Group plc, Equifax Inc., Mitek Systems Inc., LexisNexis Risk Solutions Group, Trulioo Information Services Inc., Acuant Inc., TransUnion LLC, Innovatrics s.r.o., and Applied Recognition Corp. are some of the key players in the market. Several M&As along with partnerships have been undertaken by these players to facilitate customers with hi-tech and innovative products/technologies.

“Amongst component, the solutions segment held a prominent share in the market in 2020”
Among these, the solutions segment held a significant share of the global identity verification market in 2020 owing to the shift to digital transformation in various industries, the growing need to combat data breaches and fraud, increasing government support for data protection laws, and regulations, and requirements, requisite to fulfill KYC and AML compliance and easy onboarding of customers as well as employees.
Identity verification has become an integral part as the private and government sectors embrace more digital mediums, such as digital service access and borer control. “Smart Border Control” uses facial recognition for identity authentication and verification, and smart cities around the world use electronic ID cards (eID), biometric detection, and video analytics to verify identity.
“Amongst type, biometric segment accounted for a prominent share in the market in 2020”
Based on type, the market is divided into biometric and non-biometric. Biometric identity verification, the most common type of identity verification, establishes an individual’s legitimacy based on one or more biological characteristics. Fingerprints, retinal and iris patterns, and other biometric verification methods are commonly used. Biometric solutions use lock-and-capture mechanisms to verify an individual and grant access to a limited set of services. Therefore, the biometric identity verification segment has captured a significant share of the identity verification market in 2020 and is expected to continue growing at a robust growth rate during the forecasted period. Moreover, the increasing mobile and interpenetration rate in developing countries is also contributing to the growth of this market. For instance, according to the World Bank, in 2019, 64% of the population in Asia-Pacific was using the internet and this number grew to 69% in 2020.
“North America to witness significant growth during the forecast period”
North America held a prominent share of the market in 2020 and is expected to showcase a prominent growth rate during the forecast period. The growth of this market can be attributed to the presence of key market players in the region and the quick adoption of new technologies in the region. Additionally, factors such as the development of smart infrastructure, smart cities, government initiatives such as digital identity-based driver’s licenses, and increasing integration of various technologies such as AI, ML, and blockchain to secure digital identities are expected to grow in demand. Moreover, growing investment in AI is further influencing the growth of this market. For instance, according to the 2022 Stanford AI Index report, private venture investment in AI surged to USD 93.5 Bn in 2021, more than doubling from 2020. Further, initiatives taken by the government towards tackling identity-related frauds, such as compliance regulations initiated by countries, increasing demand for cloud identity verification solutions, and increasing identity-related cyber-attacks are driving the revenue growth in North America.
