Key Market Issues
The defense budget of the Netherlands, which was estimated at US$10.09 billion in 2012, recorded a CAGR of -4.19% during the review period. During the forecast period, the defense budget is expected to decrease at a CAGR of -0.08%, to reach US$9.87 billion by 2017. The predicted fall compared to the review period level in the defense budget is largely due to the high fiscal debt of the country and subsequent cuts to government spending. Although the country is still in the process of modernizing its defense forces, its defense procurement budget is unlikely to record any significant growth in the next five years, as investments will be made only in high priority categories.

The internal security expenditure of the Netherlands government was estimated at US$860 million for 2012. The Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations represents the Ministry of Home Affairs of the Netherlands, and is responsible for the internal security of the country. In 2009, these institutions decentralized the internal security of the country and held all the municipalities responsible for fighting crime and domestic terrorism at the local level. The municipalities work with the police to fight against anti-social behavior and organized crime. The ministry allocated US$46.5 million for the police services in 2009, and allocated an additional US$21.8 million in 2010 to fight against organized crime, fraud, cybercrime and human trafficking.
