Description

Member states of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) contribute to the activities of the alliance in several ways, the chief of which is through the deployment of their own armed forces, funded by their national budgets.

These three accounts--the civil budget, the military budget, and the security investment program--are funded by individual contributions from the member states.
