Key Highlights

Taiwan’s defense budget, estimated to be US$XX billion in 2011, has grown at a CAGR of XX% during the review period and is projected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period to reach US$ XX billion by 2015. The country’s military expenditure is expected to be driven by factors such as a strained relationship with China and the acquisition of advanced defense systems. Rapid defense modernization plans being pursued by China have also compelled the nation to enhance the capabilities of its armed forces. The country’s defense budget as a percentage of GDP is likely to increase from XX% in 2011 to XX% in 2015, and during the forecast period the country’s defense spending growth rate is expected to correlate closely with the nation’s GDP growth rate.

During the review period, the country spent over XX% of its total defense budget on revenue expenses, while less than XX% of the overall defense budget was allocated for capital expenditure. However, during the forecast period the share of capital expenditure in the overall defense budget is anticipated to increase to an average of XX%. This increase in capital expenses is largely due to the country’s focus on acquiring advanced defense systems. With the country planning to reduce its troop size by XX% by 2014, the share of revenue expenditure in the total defense budget is also expected to decline during the forecast period. As a consequence of this increase in capital expenditure, defense equipment suppliers will experience a surge in demand for advanced defense systems such as fighter aircraft, military helicopters, missiles, warships and submarines.
