Global Defense

ISIN: CH0434695026

Positioned to benefit from durable, broad-based growth driven by increasing government military spending on the back of surging geopolitical risk, higher defense spending from major economic powers and the continued rise in the US military budget, the defense sector is expected to maintain its trajectory in the coming years. The rise in investment should see a general uptick worldwide as global tensions boost demand for military equipment and expand margins accordingly. The Global Defense Certificate focusses on companies operating in the defense sector, ranging from large, military and defense solution providers to engineering high-tech companies.

Investing in global defense makes sense for two important reasons: demand and diversification. With a focus on advanced research and development, surveillance, aerospace and analytical technologies, global defense makes a super-attractive, stable option for investors. Defense stocks are highly valued for a number of reasons and can ride out the bumps in the market without breaking a sweat: they’re an exception to the cyclical pattern of the stock market. Long-term contracts secured years in advance provide insulation for the heavily concentrated industry against rocky market conditions. The big-name players listed in this theme are building solutions to keep ahead of digital shifts, and are heavily invested in the development of smart systems, artificial intelligence, connected devices and other innovative technologies.
