☆ Russia’s invasion of Ukraine sparked a defense boom. It’s likely to outlast the war

“While some Ukraine-related orders are starting to come through, restocking and the impact of ongoing defense spending increases will be evident further down the line,” he noted. ‘Era of insecurity’Continued US military support for Ukraine on the scale of the past two years is looking increasingly unlikely. But the pressure on Western governments to beef up their military coffers will outlast the Ukraine war, analysts say, and it started to rise even before Moscow sent its troops marching toward Kyiv two years ago. The febrile global environment has helped lift the shares of Renk, a newly-listed German maker of military tank gearboxes, including those donated by Berlin to Ukraine. And this appeal is unlikely to fade soon, given growing defense spending by governments.

☆ Ukraine War, Global Tensions Lift European Arms Makers’ Orders, Share Prices

LONDON—Europe’s defense contractors are boosting orders and enjoying surging stock market valuations, lifted by higher government spending and the expectation of more sales to come as the Ukraine war grinds on. BAE Systems PLC, Europe’s largest defense contractor, was the latest in a parade of big arms makers to post a large jump in annual orders for 2022. It joined peers such as Sweden’s Saab AB and Norway’s Kongsberg Gruppen ASA in benefiting from generally higher military spending around the world—particularly from some European countries—amid the Ukraine war.
☆ Ukraine yet to make defence a safe investor haven
  + stars: | 2023-02-20 | by ( Lisa Jucca | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +6 min
MUNICH, Feb 20 (Reuters Breakingviews) - The West’s rush to supply weapons to war-torn Ukraine looks like a golden opportunity for defence companies to exit the ESG doghouse. As with air-polluting coal, socially-minded investors including pension funds and insurers - particularly European ones - have long excluded or heavily restricted investment in defence companies on ethical grounds. Risk committees, particularly at domestic banks, are now more frequently assessing the merits of financing defence companies, two senior bankers among the 850 or so conference participants said. Proponents of the approach argue military companies that help Ukraine perform a globally valuable social function by upholding democracy. The Munich Security Index, a global risk perceptions survey conducted before the conference, showed security concerns had replaced climate challenges as the top concern.
☆ Ukraine War Spurs Arms Makers to Boost Production
  + stars: | 2022-11-24 | by ( Benjamin Katz | Doug Cameron | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Rheinmetall, one of Europe’s biggest weapons and munitions makers, displayed its wares at an exhibition in Paris earlier this year. The world’s biggest arms makers are scaling up production of rocket launchers, tanks and ammunition as the industry shifts to meet what executives expect to be sustained demand triggered by the war in Ukraine. The ramp-up is playing out in large measure in Europe, where a handful of long-established arms makers have grown accustomed to more modest, peacetime demand for their wares and are now trying to increase capacity to meet an expected crush of orders. Shares of many of these lesser-known international arms players, including Germany’s Rheinmetall AG and Sweden’s Saab AB, have soared on hopes of big orders.
