In contrast to common thinking, the domestic market for homeland security made up only 52 percent of the global market in 2005, according to a research report from the analyst firm Homeland Security Research Corp. in Washington

That share will drop even lower in coming years, as the non-U.S. market grows from $22.5 billion in 2005 to $104 billion by 2015, an estimated average annual growth rate of 16.5 percent.

By comparison, U.S. demand for homeland security products will grow at 12.1 percent over that period-from $23.9 billion to $74.8 billion-dropping U.S. market share to 42 percent.

Most of this discrepancy comes from strong demand from three regions-the European, Indian, and Chinese markets, according to the report, which is titled 2006-2015 Homeland Security & Homeland Defense Global Market.

Predicted homeland security market share is split among the following countries. Numbers are given per region, with market size in billions of U.S. dollars in 2005, 2010, and 2015.

Middle East: 4.6, 9.8, 15.2
European Union: 8.1, 21.5, 39.6
Australia, Japan, Pac. Rim: 5.1, 10.9, 16.3
China and India: 1.7, 6.9, 16.8
Canada and Mexico: 0.7, 1.8, 3.3
USA: 23.9, 49.7, 74.8
Rest of World: 2.2, 6.2, 12.4
Total: 46.4, 106.8, 178.3

The entire global market is predicted to grow from $26 billion in 2003 to $178 billion in 2015.
