South Korean Pharmaceutical Market to Grow Slowly to $20.4 Billion by 2020

PR Newswire iReach

PUNE, India, May 20, 2016 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- In 2015, South Korea's population was approximately at 51.2 million. It has one of the world's highest population densities. The South Korean government has been making continuous efforts to strengthen the economy to ensure long-term growth, and the pharmaceutical market is seen as a key industry for the country's future growth. To support this industry, the South Korean regulatory authorities recently made changes to the regulatory bodies overseeing the pharmaceutical and wider medical sectors, to provide a transparent, strong and efficient regulatory system to facilitate faster approval of pharmaceutical products and medical devices.

The South Korean pharmaceutical market is one of the largest in Asia, estimated to be worth $18.2 billion in 2015 and expected to reach $20.4 billion by 2020. The market grew nominally at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 2.4% over the 2008-2020 period. The medical device market was valued at $4.4 billion in 2008 and is expected to reach approximately $6.5 billion by 2020, at a projected CAGR of 6%. These positive trends can primarily be attributed to -

- Increasing awareness in the medical community and the general population regarding early disease detection and diagnosis, leading to higher rates of adoption of treatments and healthcare
