India : Cautious or Smarter?

India is considering making it harder for foreign investors to acquire companies in its pharmaceuticals sector, in a bid to protect the country’s thriving market for low-priced generic drugs.

Such a move could restrict multinational pharmaceutical corporations’ access to a fast-growing emerging market at a time when they are dealing with aging drug pipelines and sluggish growth in the West. Any regulatory actions, however, may be tempered by concerns among some in the Indian government that a drastic move would send a signal that New Delhi is wavering in its commitment to economic liberalization.
