Healthcare global
Healthcare is a fast-growing market that is particularly interesting for investors. A key growth driver is an aging society and the diseases and conditions that afflict the elderly. Meanwhile the growing Westernization of modern lifestyles has long been a reality and will become even more apparent in the decades to come. This trend explains the rise of many of today's chronic diseases. There are now more than 400 million people with diabetes worldwide, for example, and the trend is still pointing up. Innovative drugs and new forms of treatment are needed to contain the sharply rising cost of healthcare.
Many investors still think of a classic pharmaceutical company when they hear the word “healthcare”, but the healthcare sector actually offers a much wider selection of investment opportunities than just pharma. The professionals at Bellevue Asset Management actively cover and capture the most promising of these opportunities.
