ATOI
African Trade Opportunity Index
Measures where African exporters and investors could focus next.
AIC Trade Decision Intelligence
Move from a corridor question to a verified baseline, relationship graph, intervention assessment and reproducible evidence record in one governed workspace.
AIC's integrated framework
AIC does not claim to have invented trade indices. Its proprietary contribution is a unified, Africa-specific framework that connects established analytical dimensions to explainable evidence, comparisons and policy assessment.
ATOI
Measures where African exporters and investors could focus next.
ATRI
Measures exposure to trade disruption and external shocks.
AEDI
Measures the resilience and diversification of export structures.
ATIS
AIC's composite decision framework combining opportunity, inverted risk and resilience.
What makes the system useful: each published score must expose its drivers, evidence coverage and limitations. Forecasts and recommended actions are shown only when their supporting evidence is available; they are not generated to fill data gaps.
Evidence chain
Firm, port and buyer nodes are drawn as gaps because AIC holds no observation of them. They are not estimated, and questions that depend on them are declined rather than answered.
Firm, port and buyer nodes need customs, logistics and registry agreements. Those partnerships are what turn this from a country graph into a transaction graph.
Intervention assessment
No model percentage is produced unless the required real inputs and fitted model exist.
Configure one corridor or commodity around a decision your institution must make, with agreed evidence, intervention assessment and monitoring indicators.
Trade data observatory
Public does not mean current, and partnership-ready does not mean connected. AIC exposes both distinctions before analysis.
