<p><span><span>The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic put a strain on the global healthcare system. Businesses were required to innovate on short notice, catalyzing business transformations in the entire global healthcare ecosystem. Furthermore, companies faced massive restructuring in their infrastructure, workforce, and supply chain management. Despite these obstacles, healthcare companies gained space to innovate, resulting in a performance increase, which is expected to continue due to the additional focus put on healthcare companies and the trend of personalizing medication to account for patients’ individual requirements. Leading South African financial service company Sygnia released an ETF, the Sygnia Itrix Solactive Healthcare 150 ETF, tracking the largest 150 companies from the Developed Markets’ Healthcare Industries. The Solactive Developed Markets Healthcare 150 Index serves as the underlying for the ETF.</span></span></p>
