Global Squalene Market Dynamics

The growth in the pharmaceutical industry

Increased R&D and spending on oncology medicines are projected to fuel the industry size. For instance, according to the recent analysis by the IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science, the global oncology-drug market reached US$133 billion in 2017.

Whereas, the overall spending on cancer therapies and supportive-care products increased to US$133 billion in 2017 globally, up from US$96 billion in 2013. Moreover, the spending on oncology medicines over the forecast period is anticipated to be in the range of 6.0–8.0%, which is likely to propel the squalene market.

Furthermore, the surging cosmetic industry in developing markets such as India, China, and Brazil, growing consumer awareness related to the use of high-quality cosmetic products, and willingness to pay premium prices are promoting the cosmetic industry growth at a global level. Hence, fueling the growth if the global squalene market.

However, several governing agencies such as the North-East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC), North Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO), General Fisheries Commission of the Mediterranean (GFCM), and Commission for Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) have imposed limitations such as fixed quotas for shark fishing, which, in turn, has led to the short supply of shark liver and, thereby affected growth of the overall squalene market.
