The seventh edition of the Jefferies Healthcare Temperature Check was just released and it captures a record number of views from senior leaders and investors across the global healthcare sector. The annual research report once again explores the issues at the top of the healthcare agenda that will be addressed during our London Healthcare Conference this week. We were encouraged to see stronger conviction in a positive outlook for markets, with two thirds of respondents believing the FTSE 100 will be higher by the end of 2025. This confidence is even higher for Healthcare itself, with 73% expecting the MSCI World Healthcare Index to end higher by the end of 2025, up from just over half of respondents last year.
