DEFENSE INVESTING Q&A
What is the future of defense investing?- The future of defense investing will continue to be driven by heavy research and development in order to stay ahead of the curve and meet the needs of their customers. Defense firms will need to invest in new technologies and capabilities in order to stay competitive. It is also likely to result in increased spending on procurement, training, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities in order to counter the growing threat of cyber attacks.
- Is the defense industry profitable?
-
The defense industry can be very profitable for those that are able to win contracts with governments and other organizations; it is often shielded from economic downturns, as governments typically continue to invest in defense even when other areas of the economy are struggling.
The defense industry is often supported by government subsidies and other forms of government support, which helps to keep costs down. Additionally, the defense industry benefits from economies of scale, as many of the products and services it provides are very expensive to develop and produce, and is often able to charge high prices for its products and services, as there is typically little competition in this sector.
