Publication number: 20140081705Abstract: Consumer spend by industry is modeled based on the industry sizes of wallet of consumers having a high share of wallet with a financial institution. A size of wallet is calculated for each consumer in a plurality of consumers. A share of wallet for each consumer is also calculated. A subset of the plurality of consumers whose share of wallet is above a given percentage of their size of wallet is then determined. For each consumer in the subset, an industry size of wallet is determined. A correlation between the industry size of wallet of a given consumer and one or more characteristics of the given consumer is then derived using the industry size of wallet for the consumers in the subset.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 20, 2013Publication date: March 20, 2014Applicant: American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc.Inventors: Prashant Kalia, Karlyn Heiner Crotty, Iwao Fusillo

Publication number: 20090012839Abstract: To determine brand affiliation, a consumer criterion may be identified. A filtered group of one or more consumers may be created in which each consumer in the filtered group is subject to the consumer criterion. A percentage of consumers in the filtered group of consumers having at least one transaction with a brand of interest may then be determined. A percentage of consumers in a control group of consumers having at least one transaction with the brand of interest may also be determined. A ratio comparing the percentage of consumers in the filtered group to the percentage of consumers in the control group may then be calculated. Based on the calculated ratio, the brand affiliation between the consumer criterion and the brand of interest is determined. This affiliation can be leveraged to target marketing materials for one of the brands to consumers of the second brand.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2007Publication date: January 8, 2009Applicant: American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc.Inventors: Iwao Fusillo, Prashant Kalia, Suby P.
