The Pentagon is creating a 30-person unit with top bankers to manage $200B in defense investments, per a 2025 executive order.
The Pentagon is forming a 30-person "Economic Defense Unit" recruiting investment bankers from top firms like Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Morgan Stanley to manage $200 billion in defense-related investments over three years.
The initiative, aligned with a 2025 executive order by former President Trump to create a U.S. sovereign wealth fund, aims to strengthen national security through strategic private-sector financial expertise.
Led by figures with ties to private equity, the unit will focus on critical industries, reduce reliance on foreign supply chains, and leverage high-level government access to drive deals.
While the Pentagon and some firms declined to comment, Reuters could not independently verify the report.
