Ireland Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare Report Q2 2016
BMI View: Ireland’s pharmaceutical and healthcare sector will continue to observe strong development
over a multi-quarter horizon. This outlook is reflected in ongoing solid levels of investment and job creation
in both the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries. While pharmaceutical exports will continue to be
supported by Ireland’s main export markets growth, including the US, the UK and Western Europe, the
domestic Irish market, albeit small in regional terms, will gradually recover and return to growth on the
back of economic expansion, rising consumption and government’s fiscal loosening over the forecast
period.
