Roche Aims to Capitalize on Obesity-Drug Market as It Seeks Recovery Amid Sector Turmoil

Investors who have been enduring a turbulent ride since Malin's flotation in March 2015, now face a potential end to the uncertainty as Roche eyes a recovery in the obesity-drugs market. Roche, previously underperforming and grappling with declining sales of its COVID-19 test kits and drug candidate failures, has made a significant move this year by acquiring Carmot for up to $3.1 billion.

This acquisition comes as the obesity-drugs market is projected to grow significantly, reaching an estimated $200 billion by 2031.
