Market Potential Index

Janes Market Potential Index (MPI) provides an assessment of the status and appeal of 59 world defence markets

The Janes Market Potential Index (MPI) provides an assessment of the status and appeal of 59 world defence markets based on factors including defence investment; defence industrial capabilities; procurement procedures and protocols; trade mechanisms; embargo status; and political, economic and security considerations.

  • Each market may be ranked against 36 ratings, with scores of 0 (low) to 5 (high) a positive or negative appeal.
  • Users are able to view the Market Potential Index from the perspective of one of nine international exporting countries (China, France, Germany, Italy, Israel, Russia, Sweden, United Kingdom or the United States) or take a generic 'international' view.
  • Ratings change depending on the perspective selected to take into account international embargoes and existing trade and government relations.
