Regulating Data: EU Data Act & More
See our monthly updates regarding the EU Data Act and other data related regulations
Delivering effective and affordable healthcare represents a substantial challenge for mature and emerging economies alike. The independent sector plays an increasingly key role in delivering publicly funded (as well as privately funded) care, and working in partnership with the public sector to address the complex needs of ageing populations on one hand and the spiraling costs of innovative treatments and medical technology on the other.
To take advantage of the significant opportunities in the health and healthcare space, investors must consider commercial return in the context of demanding contracts with commissioners of care, stringent regulations, the well being of those in their care and reputational risk.
Our healthcare team operates across Europe, the Middle East and Asia and has developed a reputation for handling complex and innovative transactions. We regularly represent financial institutions and asset managers (including private equity funds), as well as operators and other corporates, active in the sector.
