Malaysia's strategy of introducing business friendly policies and not least a new set of medical device regulations has seen it continue to attract multinational investment in manufacturing plants in the country.

This being a factor, alongside continued investments in healthcare, the medical device market is set to expand at a solid 16.1 % per annum. Headline Industry Forecasts: In US dollar terms, the medical device market is projected to expand by a CAGR of 16.1%, which should see it rise from an estimated USD1,359.0mn in 2013 to USD2,868.6mn in 2018.
