Key Highlights

Brunei’s military spending, which stands at US$0.41 billion in 2011, has increased at a CAGR of 5.62% during the review period and is projected to register a CAGR of 6.56% during the forecast period, to reach US$0.53 billion by 2015. The country’s defense expenditure is expected to be driven primarily by modernization initiatives, border disputes and international terrorism. Moreover, years of defense budget underfunding and the need to develop military capacity to deter aggression has created the need for equipment such as fighter aircraft, military helicopters, infantry fighting vehicles and naval defense systems.
During the review period an average of 65% of the nation’s defense spending was earmarked for revenue expenses while an average of 35% was spent on capital expenditure. However, during the forecast period the share of capital expenditure in the overall defense budget is expected to increase to an average of 37%, as the country focuses on enhancing a military capability which is far inferior to most of its neighbors including China, Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam
