Benefits & Risks
Benefits
- Profit from the worldwide growth of the healthcare sector, which has clearly outpaced the growth of global GDP during the past ten years.
- Take advantage of the positive characteristics of the healthcare sector and generate alpha through a bottom-up selection process and factor allocation strategies.
- Strategic overweighting of the “structural growth” factor and underweighting of blue-chip pharmaceutical stocks.
- Low earnings risk – above-average earnings growth, even in crisis years, leading to stable portfolio components.
- Bellevue – healthcare pioneer since 1993 and today one of the biggest independent investors in the sector in Europe.
Risks
- The fund actively invests in equities. Equities are subject to strong price fluctuations and so are also exposed to the risk of price losses.
- The fund may invest a proportion of its assets in financial instruments that might under certain circumstances have a relatively low level of liquidity, which can in turn affect the fund’s liquidity.
- The fund invests in foreign currencies, which means a corresponding degree of currency risk against the reference currency.
- Investing in emerging markets entails the additional risk of political and social instability.
- The fund may engage in derivatives transactions. The increased opportunities gained come with an increased risk of losses.
Review / Outlook
Healthcare (MSCI World Healthcare) underperformed global equities (MSCI World) in April by 278 bps (after outperforming by 213 bps in March). Multiple sector-specific risks emerged during the month. For biopharma, we have seen three risks emerge. While initially exempt from tariffs, the Trump Administration initiated a Section 232 investigation on drugs, citing national security risks. Through the month we have also seen increasing uncertainty around drug approvals at the FDA given significant layoffs and evolving policy. Thirdly, towards the end of the month, the most-favored-nation (MFN) policy has remerged in law makers commentary.
Despite the above risks, pharmaceuticals (+0.6%) was the best performing healthcare GICs industry in the month. The leading companies highlighted their broad geographic manufacturing footprint and robust margins during earning calls, which helped the stocks towards the end of the month, but we wait to see what is next from a drug tariff or pricing perspective. Similarly to pharmaceuticals, larger-cap biotech performed solidly in the month (NBI; +0.4%) driven by Q1 earnings and relative safety, but we note further significant underperformance for the higher-growth smaller companies (XBI Biotech ETF; -4.9%).
Medtech (0.0%) rebounded rapidly from tariff concerns earlier in the month driven by positive Q1 sales, continued strong utilization, and reassuring 2025 guidance. The leading medtech companies did a good job of framing the potential impact from tariffs, in our view. However there were some concerns, with the likes of GE Healthcare (-12.8%) and Becton Dickinson (-9.6%) particularly exposed. Life science tools (-6.0%) underperformed in the month, with a relatively high potential exposure to US-China tariffs and dependency on NIH spending. Healthcare services (-8.0%) was the worst performing healthcare GICs industry, driven by weak results from bellwether UnitedHealth.
From a geographical point of view, Asian healthcare (+4.9%) performed best in April, followed by emerging markets (+3.0%) and Europe (+1.9%). US healthcare (-3.6%) was disappointing in the month, driven by the aforementioned risks.
The Bellevue Diversified Healthcare Fund (I-shares: -2.2%, in USD) underperformed its healthcare index benchmark by 30 bps, largely due to a tilt towards innovative companies.
The number of potential policy outcomes are numerous, which adds risk to the sector and broader equities. In healthcare, high gross margins and diversified manufacturing bases should help protect the bottom-line from tariffs or drug pricing changes, although significant uncertainty remains. Should the US economy enter a slowdown or recession, it is important to remember that inelastic demand for healthcare products and services ensures that it is an attractive investment in turbulent times.
We remain focused on high-conviction names from a bottom-up perspective, and see a broad exposure to subsectors, style and geography as appropriate from an risk perspective.
