Key Market Issues

The South Korean government places increasing emphasis on technical cooperation and technology transfer, to ensure that the South Korean defense industry is not perceived as a sub-contracted supplier of low-technology parts. South Korea has changed its policies to achieve technology transfer in each of its defense deals to reduce its dependence on imports of advanced defense systems. The foreign contractor is required to provide a guarantee in advance that the proposed technologies will be approved by the respective government or regulatory agencies for transfer to South Korea prior to the approval of the offset contract.

Industrial Disputes and Rigidity of Labor Market Deter InvestmentSouth Korea has a negative reputation for industrial disputes in terms of wages and dangerous working conditions, and records frequent strikes or violent protests. Although the South Korean government has demonstrated strong commitment to the restructure of the corporate, services and labor sectors, South Korea is perceived as a risk for foreign and domestic investors.

Key Highlights

Moreover, the South Korean defense budget it is expected to record a stronger CAGR of 7.11% during the forecast period to reach US$43.3 billion by 2017. The contrast in defense spending during the review period is attributed to the change in dollar conversion value which is used in converting the local South Korean currency.

Homeland Security Market Expected To Grow Steadily During the Forecast Period

In 2012, the South Korean homeland security market was valued at US$324 million and is expected to grow at a rate of 9.01% during the forecast period. The growth is anticipated to reflect the threat from both indigenous terrorist groups and international terrorist organizations such as Al-Qaeda. Within the South Korean homeland security market, the aviation security market is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 9.86% from an estimated value of US$439.4 million in 2012 to US$703.2 million in 2017, as a result of the development of new airports, increased air traffic, terminal expansion plans and the globalization of terror activities.

Defense Imports Expected To Grow During the Forecast PeriodDuring the review period, South Korean defense imports valued US$7.1 billion, despite recording a sharp decline in 2009, which was attributed to the global financial crisis and subsequent reduction in total government expenditure by South Korea. However, the South Korean defense modernization program and moderate capital expenditure budget allocation are expected to support imports of defense equipment and record significant growth during the forecast period. Total defense imports in 2011 grew at a rate of 7.73% to reach US$1.42 billion.
