Sector information

The Dutch health care system is one of the best in the world. Everyone contributes to it, through taxes and compulsory basic health insurance. So every resident can count on good care when they need it. But healthcare costs are rising: we are getting older, there are more and more expensive drugs, and the cost of long-term care is also rising.

Takeover market

Buying and selling Healthcare & Pharmacy businesses is a vibrant market, only that it largely takes place behind the scenes. The sector represents a stable share of the total number of mergers and acquisitions in the Netherlands. On average, six percent of mergers and acquisitions take place in Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals.
