COVID-19 Analysis


COVID-19 outbreak has caused an unprecedented global emergency, which has negatively impacted businesses across various industry verticals. Governments are making interventions in response to the spread of coronavirus. The impact has been felt by large enterprises as well as SMEs around the world. To keep the employees safe and adhere to the stringent guidelines laid by the governments, enterprises have adopted the work from home policy, which is creating a significant demand for the trade surveillance systems market during the pandemic. Trade surveillance systems have also witnesseda demand from SMEs as they provide all the related services under a single contract. It enhances the overall working experience of the employees so that the management can focus on developing strategies to boost sales and profitability. As organizations begin to prepare for the post-pandemic world, employees now expect to have the flexibility and capacity to work remotely regardless of whatever the future of work includes, given that employees are not returning to pre-COVID-19 conditions.


The COVID-19 outbreak may quickly lead to the biggest emerging market crisis of the modern era. Trade surveillance systems have witnessed a fall in domestic and external demand, unprecedented capital outflows, higher external borrowing rates, commodity bust, and currency depreciation. At the same time, emerging market governments are increasing domestic borrowing by conservative strategies to assemble fiscal resources to fight the pandemic.


Market Dynamics


The global market for trade surveillance systems is expected to grow steadily during the forecast period. The growth can be primarily attributed to the growing demand for monitoring trade activities in financial institutions and the increasing need for mandatory and regulatory compliances. Moreover, the integration of AI and ML in surveillance systems is expected to create opportunities for market players during the forecast period. However, a lack of awareness is likely to restrain the growth of the global market during the forecast period.



  • Drivers


Growing Demand for Monitoring Trade Activities in Financial Institutions


Trade surveillance is actively monitoring proprietary or client trades to detect and analyze suspicious trading patterns. In the financial services industry, trade surveillance is described as the process of monitoring and analyzing an organization's trading behavior that directly or indirectly includes market abuse or market manipulation techniques that might result in legal action, criminal charges, or even corporate closure. Financial institutions recognize immediate needs, identify teams, and specify requirements, with a focus on the "at risk" sectors and enhanced preventative capabilities. This phase typically begins with a current state evaluation of surveillance capabilities, followed by a budget and execution plan based on the assessment's findings and recommendations.Moreover, the technology will continue to assist financial institutions in dealing with the increasing business difficulties when customers want flexibility, regulatory compliance is developing, and other such relevant roles in the industry


Thus, the growing demand for monitoring trade activities in financial institutions is expected to drive the growth of the global trade surveillance market during the forecast period



  • Opportunities


Integration of AI and ML in Surveillance Systems


Across the globe, governments have invested heavily to build a surveillance infrastructure. There are millions of cameras, but no one to monitor them 24/7.  On the other hand, artificial intelligence (AI) can analyze every frame and provide real-time analysis, potentially saving millions of lives. Numerous nations are deploying advanced AI surveillance technologies to map, monitor, and manage individuals to achieve various policy goals, some of which are legal, some of which violate human rights, and some fall into a grey area.


 Moreover, the ability of AI to self-learn is one of the reasons it is having such a significant effect on the market. Nowadays, it recognizes things in the actual world, compares the findings to the proper annotations (supplied by humans), and attempts to improve further. AI-powered video monitoring software reduces the time spent on surveillance, allowing security officers to be more productive and successful in their duties. By removing the need to continually watch video displays and automating the "detection" function of surveillance: confirming and responding to critical occurrences, AI technology allows operators to focus on what they do best. In this manner, it is continually learning and improving. With each repetition, the chances of errors are reduced and approaches closer to or even better than human error. Thus, the integration of AI and ML in surveillance systems is expected to present lucrative growth opportunities for the players operating in the global trade surveillance market.



  • Restraints


Lack of Awareness


The trade surveillance systems market is evolving at a rapid pace. Trade surveillance is actively monitoring personal or client trades to detect and analyze suspicious trading patterns. Trading in the securities markets has progressed technologically and geographically, in which traders use complex algorithms to place orders automatically.As trading in the capital/security markets progressed, traders discovered new techniques to manipulate prices, eventually losing investor trust and creating a negative impact on the market. However, the lack of awareness about its operational capabilities and lack of hands-on experience of the employees limits the growth of the trade surveillance systems market. Moreover, the dependence of third-party vendors regarding functionality also increases the risk of data breaches significantly. Thus, the lack of technical expertise and rising security concerns are likely to hinder the growth of the global trade surveillance systems market during the forecast period.
