Japan’s pharmaceutical industry is the second largest in the world, worth $89 billion in 2011 or 10% of the world market. The industry grew from $62.8 billion in 2005 to its current value at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.1%.
Growth of the domestic pharmaceutical industry has recently been hampered by biennial drug price reductions, which are expected to continue as the government attempts to cut healthcare expenditure. Price reviews are also constrained by a national health budget, which limits the increase of drug prices. In addition, the gradual increase in market share and competition from generics has depressed market value and will continue to do so as government policy promotes their use.

Summary
GBI Research, the leading business intelligence provider, has released its latest research “Japan
Pharmaceutical Market Outlook Deregulation and More Efficient New Drug Approval Process Attract Foreign
Investment and Improve the Competitiveness of Japanese Players”. Japan’s pharmaceutical
industry is the second largest in the world, worth $89 billion in 2011 or 10% of the world market. The industry
grew from $62.8 billion in 2005 to its current value at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.1%.
Growth of the domestic pharmaceutical industry has recently been hampered by biennial drug price
reductions, which are expected to continue as the government attempts to cut healthcare expenditure. Price
reviews are also constrained by a national health budget, which limits the increase of drug prices. In addition,
the gradual increase in market share and competition from generics has depressed market value and will
continue to do so as government policy promotes their use.
However, easing of regulatory guidelines, an aging population and a strong product pipeline will provide a
strong impetus for growth in the pharmaceutical industry. Although the increasing market share of generics
may dampen market value, this represents a great deal of opportunity for generic manufacturers.
Historically, the Japanese pharmaceutical market has favored domestic companies. However, since the 1990s,
deregulation has promoted investment from abroad and increased the presence of foreign firms.
