Reasons to Consider ARMR
Long-Term Potential Growth Catalysts
Since 2020, global defence spending has grown at an annualised rate of 4.4%, up approximately 4x from pre-pandemic levels, hitting an all-time high of $2.44 trillion. The 6.8% rise from 2022 to 2023 was the sharpest since 2009, taking spending to the highest level ever recorded (Source: Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, April 2023).
Defence Innovation
Governments may increasingly rely on advanced military systems requiring specialised hardware, driving demand for sensors, AI chips, and networking solutions. This could fuel defence innovation, potentially including advanced robotics and AI-driven weapons. The U.S. has designated cyberspace as its fifth military domain, underscoring the crucial role of technological advancements in modern defence (Source: Association of the United States Army, November 2022).
Differentiated Exposure
Defence Tech can span a range of sectors and themes, including industrials, cybersecurity, AI, and augmented reality. However, unlike the civilian marketplace, defence revenues are substantially tied to military needs, which are typically uncorrelated to general economic cycles.
Capital at Risk. All financial investments involve an element of risk. Therefore, the value of your investment and the income from it will vary and your initial investment amount cannot be guaranteed.
