Transactions in the healthcare sector have been driven in recent years in particular by technical progress, higher cost pressure and the need to increase efficiency. The focus on core activities has resulted in a number of Carve-outs. Mega-trends such as longer life expectancy and digitalisation are also driving M&A activities.
There is also a growing willingness of public and private investors to invest in robust local health markets. Strategic investors and financial investors see this as the focus for their long-term growth strategies.
