Executive Overview
MarketPilot - Trade Intelligence & Execution Infrastructure
MarketPilot is a structured Trade Intelligence & Execution Infrastructure designed to enable banks, chambers of commerce, and trade associations to identify, activate, and scale international trade opportunities in a measurable and coordinated way.
MarketPilot connects global demand signals, trade data, and market execution capabilities within a single, integrated system.
It brings together:
- the Trade Intelligence layer (ATIM)
- the Trade Execution layer (Protegra)
- the Data Generation layer (Multilingual Microsites)
into one coordinated infrastructure.
The Structural Challenge
Institutions supporting international trade operate in an environment where:
- Data exists, but remains disconnected
- Trade support services are fragmented
- SMEs lack international visibility
- There is no consistent link between analysis and execution
As a result, international trade opportunities are often unidentified, underdeveloped, or not activated.
The Solution: MarketPilot
MarketPilot addresses this challenge by connecting three operational layers:
- Data Generation → capturing real international demand signals
- Trade Intelligence (ATIM) → transforming data into actionable insights
- Trade Execution (Protegra) → enabling structured market engagement
From Visibility to Trade Outcomes
International Visibility → Trade Intelligence → Market Execution → Trade Outcomes
The Next Tab, Model, explains how the three MarketPilot layers interact to form a coordinated, scalable system.
Operating Model
A Structured Three-Layer Model, MarketPilot operates through three integrated layers, each with a distinct role and clear interaction.
1. Data Generation Layer
(Applicable to all institutions)
- Multilingual Microsites
- ExportersAlmanac
Generates real-time international demand signals through structured multilingual visibility.
Data Generation Layer (Applicable to all institutions)
- Multilingual Microsites
- ExportersAlmanac
Generates real-time international demand signals through structured multilingual visibility.
2. Trade Intelligence Layer (ATIM)
(Core capability for all institutions — enhanced functionality available to banks)
- Trade data (e.g.International Trade Centre / UN Comtrade)
- Aggregated visibility analytics (all institutions)
- Payment flow intelligence via BICDetective (Bank-specific capability)
Produces actionable trade intelligence including priority markets and sector demand
3. Trade Execution Layer (Protegra)
(Applicable to all institutions)
- Multilingual Market Visibility Infrastructure
- Virtual Trade Gateway
- Integrated Business Services Network
- Digital Marketplace
Enables structured commercial engagement and coordinated trade support.
Integrated Flow
Data → Intelligence → Execution → Measurable Outcomes
The Next Tab, Deployment, explains how MarketPilot can be implemented progressively with minimal IT disruption.
Modular Deployment
MarketPilot is designed as a modular infrastructure, allowing flexible deployment aligned to institutional priorities.
Key Principles
- Independent Components
Each layer can be deployed separately - Integration with Existing Systems
Works alongside current platforms and services - No Replacement Requirement
Existing systems remain in place - Progressive Scaling
Start small and expand
Minimal IT Disruption
MarketPilot enhances and coordinates existing capabilities rather than introducing complex new systems.
The Next Tab, Phase One, provides a practical example of how MarketPilot can be deployed quickly, with immediate results.
Phase One Implementation
A Practical Starting Point
MarketPilot can be activated through a focused initial phase delivering immediate internal value and early external impact.
1. Immediate Internal Value – Payment Flow Intelligence (Bank-only capability)
- Integrate payment flow analysis via BICDetective
- Analyse transaction flows to identify:
- Trade corridors
- Underutilised clients
- Inefficiencies
- Hidden activity
Immediate bank benefits:
- Enhanced client intelligence
- Revenue opportunity identification
- Improved segmentation
2. Define Trade Intelligence Parameters (ATIM) (All institutions)
- Sectors
- Geographies
- Product focus
- Thresholds
3. Deploy Data Generation (Multilingual Microsites) (All institutions)
- Distribute to clients / members
- Create international visibility
- Generate demand signals
4. Align Execution Capability (Protegra) (All institutions)
- Map existing services
- Structure within framework
5. Connect Intelligence to Action (All institutions)
- Identify opportunities
- Engage SMEs
- Initiate trade activity
Outcome of Phase One
- Immediate internal value (banks)
- Initial trade intelligence outputs
- SME engagement
- Demand signal generation
- Scalable foundation
The Next Tab, Value, summarises the strategic and operational benefits for banks, chambers of commerce, and trade associations.
Institutional Value
A Coordinated Trade Enablement Capability. MarketPilot transforms trade support into a data-driven operational capability.
Value for Banks
