Reportstack, provider of premium market research reports announces the addition of Statins Market to 2018 - Weak Product Pipeline and Shift of Focus towards Combination Therapies will Lead to Erosion of Brand Share market report to its offering The new report, "Statins Market to 2018 - Weak Product Pipeline and Shift of Focus towards Combination Therapies will Lead to Erosion of Brand Share", forecasts the worldwide statins market to drop from a 2012 valuation of US$19.7 billion to US$12.2 billion just five years later at a negative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 7.7%.Statins, a category of drugs employed to lower cholesterol levels, are increasingly under threat from non-statins and combination therapies (a mixture of statins and non-statins), but the primary threat to global revenue lies with the rise of generic variants. The global statins market declined in 2006 and 2007 due to patent expiries for Merck’s Zocor (simvastatin) and Pravachol (pravastatin), but revenue has remained steady until recently.However, the expiry of Pfizer’s blockbuster drug Lipitor (atorvastatin calcium) in 2011, followed by the immediate launch of generics, has intensified the competition in the statins market and will restrain the commercial opportunities for upcoming products. The US, the largest single contributor to the global statins market, is expected to demonstrate substantial loss of revenue in the near future and is forecast to slip from a valuation of US$10 billion last year to US$5.8 billion in 2018 – a depreciation of 42% in just six years.Statins have dominated the global dyslipidemia therapeutics market for the last few decades. The National Cholesterol Education Program (NECP) and European Society of Cardiology/European Atherosclerosis Society (ESC/EAS) guidelines have recommended the use of statins as the first choice of pharmacotherapy for the treatment of dyslipidemia. The global statins market, valued at $20.5 billion in 2011, is forecast to decline at a negative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 7.2% over the next seven years, to reach $12.2 billion by 2018. The highly consolidated statins market is expected to become increasingly competitive in the forecast period, with the patent expiries of (atorvastatin calcium), Vytorin (Ezetimibe/simvastatin), Lescol (fluvastatin) and Crestor (rosuvastatin), followed by severe generic erosion. It is estimated that the generic sector in the global statins market will grow significantly in the future and will pose tough competition to new molecules.

Geotextiles Market by Types (Woven, Nonwoven, Knitted), Materials (Polypropylene, Polyester, Polyethylene) & Applications (Road Industry, Pavement Repair, Erosion Control, Waste Containment, Railroad Stabilization) - Global Trends & Forecasts To 2017

We are sanguine towards the Malaysian agriculture sector due to the strong focus on value adding to agriculture products. Indeed, we believe the government and private sector players are heading in the right direction by investing in refining capabilities and moving up the value chain for agriculture products, such as palm oil and cocoa. In the near term, the strong ringgit and relatively lower prices of raw agriculture imports of products such as sugar, cocoa and palm oil is likely to keep export earnings buoyed this year.

BMI View: Despite the fact that several of Turkey's economic challenges - including a significant current account deficit, high cost of credit and high reliance on short-term capital flows to finance the current account deficit - constitute pertinent downside risks, we continue to hold our optimistic view for the power industry's growth potential. Not only do rewards on offer remain highly appealing, particularly when regional prospects are factored in; but recent dynamics highlight that a solution to existing energy-related imbalances is cardinal for the country's wider economy, thus making reforms and new investments in the power sector a top priority for the country.

BMI View: Subdued oil demand growth means the prospects for refiners and fuels distributors are poor, with many already facing strong competition. The purchase and reopening of Petroplus' Antwerp plant should reduce downstream uncertainty and plans to invest some US$1bn to boost diesel production at Total's Belgian refinery are a boost for the region's battered downstream. The gas market has greater potential, both in terms of rising domestic demand and the scope to re-sell surplus LNG through regional pipeline links. While there is limited upside risk to non-existent gas production from nascent efforts to assess unconventional gas potential in the Flanders region, commercial production of coal bed methane remains uncertain and unlikely to materialise in the current 10-year forecast period.

After growth of almost 6% in light vehicle sales in 2012, BMI expects a more modest expansion in 2013, in the range of 2%. While this is partly due to the base effects created by strong growth in a largely saturated market in 2012, we are also concerned by the rising levels of auto loan growth, which appears to be outstripping other forms of consumer debt. Although delinquency levels are actually lower than these other loan types, there is still a major risk to the industry should rates go up in the short term.

BMI View: Brazil's domestic industry is unlikely to benefit much from the expected recovery in demand in 2013 and over the long-term will be increasingly challenged by the expansion of low-cost ethane-fed production in the US. Brazil will need to stimulate industrial growth in the chemicals segment, which has taken a hit because of the strong real and high naphtha feedstock costs. Nevertheless, there remain some tremendous potential growth opportunities in the local market and if productivity improves and input costs fall Brazilian petrochemicals producers will sustain output and grow.

Consumers demands and mandates (both existing and expected) are the major drivers for the connected car market. Most of the major economies have already introduced one mandate or the other such as eCall in Europe and GLONASS in Russia. No wonder most of the industry experts opine that the connected car is all set to be the next big thing in the automotive industry. Future generations will rely more on cloud-based backend systems for content, information, and services. This turning of car into a huge data repository will open new avenues of business opportunities for service industries such as insurance and content providers such as Spotify (U.K.).

BMI View: The Malaysia tourism industry offers strong long term investment potential, with growth forecast across all market indicators, including inbound and outbound travel and receipts from travel and travel related items. Demand from emerging markets, such as China, Russia and Saudi Arabia will boost growth, offsetting any decline in figures as a consequence of the global credit crunch.

Risks Continue To Rise In Face Promising Sector Potential

BMI View: The German IT market is forecast to increase to EUR45.74bn in 2013, up by 4.6%, as growth picks up from a challenging 2011. Economic uncertainty will continue to be a drag on spending in 2013, but an easing of the eurozone crisis will provide an opportunity for faster growth. However, there is downside to this outlook from the potential for Spain's refinancing requirements in 2013 to act as a flashpoint affecting market sentiment. Growth dynamics will differ across segments of the IT market with services expected to expand more rapidly than either hardware or software as cloud computing, data analytics and machine-to-machine applications gain traction. Although services sales will expand rapidly, we expect hardware and software to grow each year, as well to 2017.

BMI View: Rumours abound that the traditional refinery operators in South Africa could abandon the country in the face of huge investment in capacity to meet higher fuel specifications. Plans by the country to build a large new refinery are also causing concern, so the outlook for the downstream segment is uncertain. The state looks likely to allow drilling for shale gas to proceed, unlocking considerable upstream potential - although local resistance is set to continue.
