Sustainability rules are not a block on EU defence financing, but reputational fears are
March 17, 2025--To mobilise private capital for weapons, the European Commission should clarify the status of defence investing in its sustainable finance framework
The European Commission's ReArm Europe plan, published on 5 March, aims to trigger €800 billion in defence investments over four years. European Union money would be limited to €150 billion in the form of loans and the plan hinges on increasing military spending by national governments and "mobilising private capital" 1
But without clarification on the acceptability of and need for defence investment within the EU sustainable finance framework, the private sector is unlikely to meet these expectations.
Regulatory constraints are flexible
The EU's sustainable finance rules do not place overarching restrictions on defence investment, but there are restrictions on financing companies involved in the production of 'controversial weapons'-which are defined as "those referred to in international treaties and conventions, United Nations principles and, where applicable, national legislation" (Regulation (EU) 2020/1818).
