What is the current market landscape and what is changing?
Sweden, the fifth-largest country in Europe, is expected to invest US$36.5 billion in strengthening its armed forces over the forecast period. Defense expenditure, which registered a CAGR of 8.77% during the review period, is anticipated to increase at a CAGR of 0.66% over the forecast period. The forecast military expenditure is influenced by the procurement of new defense systems, Sweden's participation in international peacekeeping missions and international relief action, and border issues. Despite a marginal increase in the country's total defense budget, military expenditure as a percentage of GDP is predicted to decrease from an average of 1.2% during the review period to an average of 1.1% over the forecast period, as the country's defense expenditure is not expected to grow at the same pace as economic growth.

What are the key drivers behind recent market changes?
During the forecast period, Sweden is expected to invest US$36.5 billion in fulfilling its defense requirements. The increase is motivated primarily by reform programs, particularly the military's transition to a rapid-deployment force with a modular structure, Sweden's involvement in peacekeeping missions, and border issues.
