Backers of a defence-focused multilateral development bank hope to improve Europe’s military sector by plugging the gaps in financing for both buyers and suppliers. An initiative to establish the Defence, Security and Resilience Bank was officially launched last week by Nato’s former head of innovation, Rob Murray. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in 2022, coupled with US President Donald Trump’s urges for Nato members to increase defence spending to 5% of GDP, has made increasing access to finance for defence a common topic of discussion. However, issues over mandates are currently limiting the support MDBs are able to provide to conflict zones, Murray tells GTR.

The World Trade Organization has warned that uncertainty over tariffs and trade restrictions threatens to undermine recent growth in global goods trade. The WTO’s latest trade barometer suggests there was positive momentum during the last few months of 2024 and the beginning of this year, but that “rising trade policy uncertainty” means the index should be interpreted with caution.
