Institutional Demand Slowdown

Definition

Institutional demand slowdown describes a period where the rate of investment or interest from large financial institutions in a particular asset class decreases. This reduction can be due to various factors, including regulatory uncertainty, macroeconomic shifts, or changes in institutional risk appetite. For digital assets, a slowdown in institutional demand can impact market liquidity and overall price stability. Such trends are closely watched as indicators of market maturity and acceptance.
