HOW TO EQUIP OURSELVES FOR A CHANGING WORLD – HAN
DELSBANKEN FONDER “As we live longer, illnesses and the need for health care around the world will become even greater” Astrid Samuelsson, Fund Manager “We also find companies that are far ahead in terms of sustainability and so give a good indication of what issues the industry should work on. One example is Novo Nordisk, which offers treatments for diabetes. Besides being successful in taking on social responsibility by facilitating the availability of insulin for everyone, they have come a long way in reducing the climate footprint of their business. The company also works a lot on waste management, and is developing a circular solution for the more than 550 million insulin pens that Novo Nordisk distributes worldwide.” Handelsbanken Hälsovård Tema is an actively managed fund that invests globally in shares issued by companies in the health care sector. The health care sector refers to pharmaceuticals, medical technology, biotechnology, service and other health-related industries.
