Abstract

Fund raising alternative, demand forming activity, information spreading and sharing instrument, strengthening the communities and expanding networks, a tool for socialization - these are the crowdfunding benefits to economics. However, the numerical values are missing in various researches due to the novelty of factor and lack of activity in some countries. Introducing the available what-if analysis approach with such disseminations, it resulted relationships between crowdfunding and indirect impact economic indicators (e.g. unemployment, inflation, etc.) to be stronger then direct impact indicators (e.g. budget revenue). Moreover, positive scenarios were less sensitive to changes of economic indicators, than negative ones.
