Defence, Security, and Resilience Bank
Collectively investing in collective security.
Collective security demands collective investment.
The DSR Bank is a Multilateral Defence Mechanism (MDM) designed to mobilise that investment—helping like-minded allies and partners finance the capabilities needed for defence, security, and resilience.
Built for scale and backed by sovereigns, the DSR Bank will address three critical challenges:
Affordable capital for governments – Delivering long-term, low-cost financing without adding pressure to national balance sheets.
Smarter, faster procurement – Supporting governments in streamlining and financing defence acquisitions.
Unlocking private capital – Providing guarantees that enable commercial banks to fund defence and security firms across the supply chain.
By bridging public and private finance, the DSR Bank gives allied democracies the financial strength to meet today’s threats—and prepare for tomorrow’s.
“The Defence, Security and Resilience Bank is the Good Citizen Bank, the Bank of Peace – a just and legitimate peace.”
Professor Dr Julian Lindley-French
The DSRB Development Group’s Partners
We are proud to partner with six leading international financial institutions to launch the Defense, Security, and Resilience Bank—a new multilateral institution bringing capital market expertise to global security. Their support reflects a growing recognition that financial innovation and international collaboration are essential to meet today’s urgent defense and resilience challenges. Together, we are building a scalable, sustainable solution to unlock investment, support supply chains, and strengthen collective deterrence.
“The banks stepping up today understand that deterrence demands financial support—and this new institution is being built to deliver it.”
Rob Murray, CEO of the DSRB Development Group
“This is not just about financing defence—it is about redefining deterrence for the modern era.”
Kevin Reed, President of the DSRB Development Group
As Seen On
Financing resilience. Strengthening supply chains. Enabling opportunity.
The DSR Bank is a multilateral financial institution with a national security mission. But its impact will be felt far beyond government.
By unlocking new sources of capital, the Bank will channel investment into the defence, security, and resilience supply chains — from global primes to specialist SMEs. It will help firms of all sizes scale production, modernise infrastructure, and bring critical technologies to market faster.
For governments, it offers a way to stretch budgets further, crowding in private finance while retaining strategic control.
For financial institutions and sovereign funds, it opens the door to a stable, policy-backed investment environment in sectors that were previously hard to access.
This is not about profit. It’s about building capacity, unlocking growth, and ensuring that democratic nations can deliver the capabilities they need — when and where they need them.
