The Global Vendor Risk Management Market size accounted for USD 5,712 Mn in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 18,820 Mn by 2030 with a considerable CAGR of 14.5% during the forecast timeframe of 2022 to 2030.

Vendor risk management (VRM) is a corporate risk management solution method that focuses on detecting and reducing vendor risks. VRM informs organizations about the vendors with and who they work, how they work with partners, and whether distribution businesses use suitable security measures.

Many organizations have begun to outsource important activities to suppliers that can analyze both the benefits and drawbacks. Although working with a third-party provider can help organizations cut operational costs and manage their businesses more efficiently, it can also pose risks. Recent events, like the Covid-19 pandemic, cyber warfare, and other ransom offenses, have highlighted the significance of vendor-related vulnerabilities. In today's business world, business size, or nation, these actions have affected billions of dollars of companies and their third-party partners. However, the increasing number of third-party vendors in small and large businesses, rapidly changing rules and regulations across different regions, with the need to regularly monitor and evaluate vendor effectiveness are driving market growth in the vendor risk management market.

The primary factors driving the market growth are the increasing incidence of third-party vendors in public and private sector organizations, rapidly changing rules and regulations across multiple markets, and the need to monitor, manage and analyze vendor performance. Organizations have currently invested significant time and energy in analyzing vendors who provide goods and services that meet their specific business requirements. However, VRM solutions shorten the process of identifying critical components of vendor performance and evaluating vendor performance is based on the vendor delivering products and services, deliverability, and product quality.

One of the key factors driving global demand for vendor risk management solutions is the rise in cyber-attacks and digital risks. Furthermore, organizations are shifting toward routine inspections supported by software solutions, paving the way for the global third-party risk management market revenue to grow.

Furthermore, many organizations use manual methods for determining threats and are unaware of the consequences of vendor risk management services and solutions in mitigating vendor risk, which are factors limiting the vendor risk management market size.
