1. Executive Summary

The Greek defense budget is projected to register a CAGR of XX% over the forecast period

The ongoing economic crisis and cuts mandated by the EU (European Union), International Monetary

Fund (IMF), and European Central Bank have affected the growth of the Greek defense industry. During

the review period, the country’s government reduced its military expenditure from US$XX billion in 2009

to US$XX billion in 2013. However, Greece and Turkey not only share a long-standing territorial dispute

involving Cyprus, but are also involved in a maritime border dispute in the Gulf of Aegean. The situation

has nearly escalated to an armed conflict twice, and has historically been the driving factor behind Greek

defense procurements; it is expected to continue to be so over the forecast period.

As a percentage of GDP, the country is expected to reduce its defense expenditure over the forecast

period, from XX% in 2013 to XX% by 2018. Total defense expenditure for the forecast period is projected

to value US$XX billion and, in accordance with its commitment to the protection of civilians and critical

infrastructure, Greece is expected to allocate an average per capita defense expenditure of US$XX.

Over the forecast period arms procurement is forecast to value US$XX billion, which corresponds to

XX% of the country’s total defense expenditure for the same period. The remaining XX% is forecast to

be invested in the training of the Hellenic Armed Forces, the MRO activities of existing defense systems,

and the salaries and pensions of military personnel.

2. Market Attractiveness and Emerging Opportunities

Greece is one of the largest importers of arms in Europe and, of all the EU nations, allocates a high

percentage of its GDP for defense purposes, making it one of the most sought after markets for foreign

OEMs. Despite the weakness of its financial sector, both the country’s minimal domestic defense

capabilities and the threat of the Turkish military have driven Greece to continue to invest in defense,

with particular focus on fighter jets, submarines, missile systems, and armored vehicles. The country

primarily imports arms from EU nations and the US, and is assisting in the development of the domestic

industry by sub-contracting deals achieved through defense offset obligations. Over the forecast period,

the Greek Ministry of Defense (MoD) is estimated to allocate a cumulative of US$XX billion for the

procurement of military equipment.

In 2013, the country invested US$XX billion on homeland security (HLS), as part of its alignment with the

international guidelines regarding the introduction of the biometric identification of citizens and travelers.

Consequently, Greece is expected to make significant acquisitions in order to implement biometric

profiling.

2.1. Defense Market Size Historical and Forecast

2.1.1. Greece expected to invest US$XX billion in defense over the forecast period

The ongoing national debt crisis forced the country’s government to reduce its military budget from

US$XX billion in 2009 to US$XX billion in 2013, at a CAGR of XX% during the review period. On a

cumulative basis, the country is forecast to spend a total of US$XX billion over the forecast period on its

armed forces, compared to US$XX billion spent during the review period. Over the forecast period, the

allocation of funding for the acquisition of military hardware and technology is projected to value US$XX

billion.

characterized by high levels of investment in military operations, such as MRO activities and salaries,

and the pensions of retired personnel. Over the forecast period, the government is proposing to cut

operational expenditure and salaries, resulting in a lower share of revenue expenditure, an average of

XX%.

2.3. Homeland Security Market Size and Forecast

2.3.1. Homeland security market to record a CAGR of 0.45% over forecast period

Greek homeland security (HLS) expenditure, valued at US$XX billion in 2013, registered a CAGR of

XX% during the review period. The country’s HLS expenditure is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX%

during the forecast period, to reach an estimated US$XX billion by 2018. With Greece’s proximity to

several other countries, the chances of illegal immigration are heightened. Over the next five years, HLS

equipment manufacturers will experience increased demand for border surveillance equipment such as

CCTV and biometric identification systems. Increased demand is also expected for equipment for the

protection of critical infrastructure, borders, and maritime security.
