About this report
Europe’s defence build-up is no longer only a matter of procurement budgets, industrial capacity and emergency rearmament. It is beginning to reshape the structure of capital formation itself.
Public markets, private rounds, sponsor exits, strategic spin-offs and state-shaped listings are becoming part of the financial infrastructure through which defence companies scale, governments preserve strategic control, investors gain exposure to long-cycle military demand, and industrial groups clarify the value of assets previously embedded inside broader conglomerates. This report examines the emerging European defence equity capital market from 2025 to 2030.
