What are the key drivers behind recent market changes?
Sri Lanka is expected to invest US$7.07 billion of its defense expenditure in the fulfilment of its defense requirements. Factors such as post-war rehabilitation, a tense relationship with India and the persistent threat from separatists are expected to stimulate defense expenditure during the forecast period.

Key Market Issues
Sri Lanka is expected to invest US$7.07 billion in its armed forces, of which US$0.33 billion is forecast to be on the acquisition of military hardware, offering foreign OEMs limited opportunities to cater to the Sri Lankan defense industry. Furthermore, during the civil war the country procured weapons by taking loans, and therefore over the next five years a portion of military expenditure will be spent on the repayment of existing loans.
Incidents of malpractice within the country's military industrial base may limit the growth of the country's defense sector. In addition to damaging the country's image in the global arms market, it also discourages foreign OEMs from market entry.
As a result of a lack of domestic defense capabilities, Sri Lanka is dependent on foreign suppliers to meet its military requirements. Arms imports, which registered increase during 2008, are further decreased due to a portion of the nation's capital expenditure being used to repay the loans taken out by the government during the civil war.
Key Highlights
Sri Lankan defense expenditure grew at a CAGR of 10.12% during the review period and is estimated at US$1.42 billion in 2012. During the forecast period, the country's defense expenditure is expected to be driven by factors such as post war rehabilitation, a tense relationship with India and a persistent threat from separatists. However, military expenditure is expected to record a decrease in growth of -0.10% CAGR and remain at US$1.41 billion by 2016.
Suppliers willing to enter the Sri Lankan defense market do so by establishing offices within the country, forming a joint venture with a domestic defense firm or through the direct supply of defense equipment to the country. Of the three routes, entering the market through direct sales is the most preferred choice, and has been employed by countries such as India, Russia and Israel.
