About this report
In a notable shift, defence-related investments are gaining traction among investors who prioritize sustainability and ESG criteria, as these stakeholders reconsider the role of military security in upholding stable, free societies.
Over the past year, a growing number of institutions with sustainability mandates have softened their stance on defence holdings , driven by the stark reality of Russia’s aggression in Ukraine and rising geopolitical risks. Some are now viewing certain defence companies – particularly those supplying democratic nations’ defensive needs – as aligned with social values rather than opposed to them.
