Record Levels of Mergers & Acqusition Activity in Healthcare Expected in 2012

6 Mar

The healthcare sector has been avoided by most investors for many years. It is, in my opinion, currently one of the most attractive investment opportunities.

Global merger and acquisition (M&A) activity picked up in 2011. During 2011, $211bn was used to finance M&A transactions. This was the third-highest year since 2000.

Valuations are close to historical lows, while growth prospects look good. I believe M&A activity will remain robust in the coming years, driven by the same factors that underpin the growth prospects in the sector, such as, favourable demographics, emerging markets and innovation.
