Amid a geopolitical environment that could remain unstable for some time, defence has become a major strategic challenge for Europe. One year after announcing an acceleration of its support for the sector, BNP Paribas has published an initial progress report on its actions in this area. In 2025, it increased its financing by €2 billion and its related investments by €6.5 billion, including AXA IM. BNP Paribas delivered on the commitment it made in March 2025 to expand its support for the ecosystem of large-, mid- and small-cap companies working to strengthen our collective security.
