Carney has described the DSRB as a "multilateral financial institution" aimed at mobilizing private capital for collective security. The bank is intended to function similarly to the World Bank or the European Investment Bank, but with a specific focus on: Lowering Borrowing Costs: Reducing the financial burden on governments for massive procurement projects, such as submarines, fighter jets, and over-the-horizon radar. * Dual-Use Infrastructure:* Financing projects that serve both civilian and military needs, particularly in the Arctic (e.g., ports, airstrips, and surveillance systems).

Supply Chain Resilience: Supporting small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) within the defense sector to ensure domestic industrial bases aren't reliant on adversarial nations.
