Abstract
This IDC study is an update to Worldwide IT Leasing and Financing 2007-2010 Forecast: Sizing the Top 25 Global Markets (IDC #207045, June 2007) and provides a forecast of the top 25 global markets for IT equipment, which combined represented 90% of worldwide IT spending in 2007, and its related leasing and financing opportunities through 2011.
"Of the $37 billion in market growth from 2006 to 2011, $18 billion or 49% of the growth will be attributed to software. Another positive and counterintuitive finding is that the transition to the new principles-based accounting standards, which increased the level of transaction transparency, have apparently resulted in robust leasing activity in most countries in Europe." - Susan G. Middleton, research director, Technology Financing Strategies, and Joseph C. Pucciarelli, program director, Technology Financing Strategies
