Industry Voice: China health care innovation

Why are we so excited by drug innovation in China?

clock • 1 min read

Initiatives to stimulate innovation, especially around drug research and development (R&D), have been the most impactful, in our view, says Invesco New York chief investment officer for developing markets equities and senior portfolio manager Justin Leverenz.

The result is a booming drug R&D ecosystem including quality biotechs and their R&D outsourcing partner companies.

We expect reforms to provide tremendous industry tailwinds for the next decade and, as long-term investors in this space, we are excited about the new opportunities that are being created.
