- Long-Term Growth Potential: Rising government spending on defence and potentially strong order books suggest long-term growth potential for the sector, making it a potential option for defence mutual funds as well.
- Diverse Sector Focus#: The index also includes sectors related to defence, such as capital goods and chemicals.
