Key Market Issues
Finland has been perceived as a country with low levels of corruption. However, since 2006, three alleged
instances of bribery and corruption involving the country's defense sector have been highlighted. As a result,
the country's ranking in the Transparency International Corruption Perceptions Index has been dropping since
2007.
The Finnish defense budget deficit in 2011 stood at US$10.6 billion, due to which the country is compelled to
reduce its defense budget in the next ten years. The Ministry of Defense is currently contemplating reductions
of US$90 million in its defense budget for 2013-2014, which may eventually lead to the cancellation of
defense related projects and air defense modernization projects. A potential cut to Finland's defense budget is
an area of concern for foreign investors. This prospect deters the entry of foreign investors into the nation's
defense sector.
Key Highlights
In order to increase defense exports and cater to the international arms market, the Finnish government
encourages domestic defense companies to collaborate with foreign defense firms. Conversely, foreign
investors seek to capitalize on Finnish defense capabilities through the joint development of military
hardware. Additionally, the country is focused on defense collaboration with other Nordic countries, thereby
enhancing the domestic industrial capabilities of Finland, Norway, and Sweden, and forming a consolidated
defense industry. For example, the country jointly established Nammo in 1998 through the merger of the
ammunition activities of Raufoss ASA, which is based in Norway, and Celcius AB, which is based in Sweden.
During 2008-2012, Italy emerged as the largest supplier of defense systems to Finland with a share of 23% of
total imports, followed by Switzerland with 20.3%, and Sweden with 16.2%. In 2008, Switzerland supplied
45.8% of the Finnish imports while France, with a 22.4% share, was the second largest supplier to the country.
Due to the economic crisis during 2008-2009, defense imports slumped by 72.6%, declining from US$157
million during 2008 to US$43 million in 2009. During the forecast period it is expected that Sweden, France,
and Italy will continue to be strong defense trade partners for the country.
The procurement deal signed with Croatia in 2007 meant that armored vehicles were the largest contributor to
Finnish defense exports with 53.2% share during 2008-2012 followed by ships with 20%. However, from
2008 onwards, Finland made no exports of ships. During the forecast period, it is anticipated that armored
vehicles will continue to dominate the country's arms exports due to an increase in the global demand for this
product.
