COVID-19 Pandemic Embossed a Pull-Push Effect on Global Trade, in Turn Influencing Trade Management Software Market

During the pandemic, several businesses were disrupted including the international trade. Government authorities in several countries implemented restrictions and bans on international trade and transport to curb the spread of the virus. This translated into interruptions in trade activities and the supply chain. In the first half of 2020, trading of goods witnessed a sharp decline. For instance, according to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) 2021 report, merchandise trade value fell significantly whereas trade in services reduced by around 20%. Developed economies across Europe, and North America witnessed a steep decline in sales of products from several industries including automotive and chemicals. However, during the timeframe, medical products and drugs related to the Sars-CoV-2 virus such as personal protective equipment, ventilators, thermometers, and sanitizers witnessed noteworthy growth in the second half of the year.

For instance, as per WTO, in May 2020, trading of medical products recorded healthy growth of around 18% more than that recorded in 2019. Non-medical products such as laptops, Wi-Fi routers, home office equipment and portable storage devices also witnessed growth during the last quarter of 2020. In addition, owing to the restrictions during the pandemic, digitalization accelerated significantly across all industries irrespective of their value and employee size. This further gave an impetus to e-commerce and global trade in general. For instance, as per the Economic Integration report 2021 of Asian Development Bank, 20% growth of the digital sector is expected to boost the global output by approximately US$4 Tn by the end of 2025. In this backdrop, albeit a major slowdown during the commencement of the pandemic, the trade management software market witnessed notable growth and is poised to maintain the momentum in the following years.

This led to the development of trade management software which can be integrated with various corporate systems such as TMS (Transport Management System) and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning). This resulted in smooth management of IT teams within organizations, ensuring maximum efficiency. Also, data provided by the software can showcase high transparency apropos to supply chain intricacies and support in making informed decisions. This factor continues to influence the growth of the trade management software market.

Asia Pacific to Showcase High Attractiveness in Trade Management Software Market

Developing nations across Asia Pacific region are expected to showcase high growth potential in the trade management software market. This is mainly owing to increasing trade activities and FDI policies by government authorities to improve FDI inflow in the region. This is expected to further give impetus to international trade relations and activities, thus driving the demand for trade management software. In addition, utilization of free trade agreements has risen dramatically across emerging economies such as China and India. This has resulted in duty free imports along with subsequent trade deficits. The scenario pushed government authorities to adopt anti-abuse procedures to shun the misuse of duty free access. This aspect is expected to support the growth of the trade management software market in Asia Pacific in the forthcoming years.
