Corporate Reputation of Global Pharma Companies, 2021-2022: Profiles of 47 Companies, 2021 v. 2020

DUBLIN, Jan. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "The Corporate Reputation of Pharma in 2021 - The Patient Perspective - Global Edition" report has been added to  ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The 'Corporate Reputation of Pharma' survey is now in its 11th year, and two years into the Covid-19 pandemic. Between November 2021-February 2022, the survey collected the opinions of 2,150 patient groups on the performance of the pharmaceutical industry during 2021.

Patient groups responding to 2021's 'Corporate Reputation of Pharma' survey are uniquely positioned to comment on the pharma industry's performance during the pandemic. Patient groups not only understand the perceptions of patients but are also the only healthcare stakeholder to network with all other stakeholders in the healthcare system.

What do companies say?

The results of a December 2021-March 2022 survey of pharma companies about their patient-centric activities can be found in an accompanying supplement to this main report. The analyst would like to thank the following 8 companies for their participation in this research:

Boehringer Ingelheim I Gilead Sciences I Horizon Therapeutics I Ipsen I Lundbeck USA I MSD (known as Merck & Co., Inc. in the United States and Canada) I Pfizer I ViiV Healthcare (VH)

SUMMARY OF RESULTS

FINDINGS AT INDUSTRY LEVEL

The 2,150 patient groups responding to the 2021 survey rated the pharma industry more favourably for corporate reputation than their predecessors in previous years. 59% of 2021's respondent patient groups stated that the industry had an "Excellent" or "Good" corporate reputation, against 50% saying the same in 2020.

The 2021 figure places the pharmaceutical industry ahead of all other healthcare stakeholders for corporate reputation for the first time in the 11 years that the analyst has been tracking the pharma industry's reputation from the patient perspective.

The positivity of 2021's respondent patient groups appears to be largely driven by the pharma industry's response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Up to 76% of 2021's respondent patient groups stated that pharma was "Very effective" or "Effective" at providing support to patients during the pandemic, compared with 61% saying the same in 2020.

The analyst's country-comparison chart is available online, and shows how patient groups in individual countries perceived the pharma industry's effectiveness at tackling Covid-19 in 2021, compared with 2020.

Nonetheless, the vast majority of 2021's respondent patient groups continued to believe that pharma could still be doing much more in several fields:

• Transparency
• Communicating fair policing policies
• Improving access to medicines, and
• Engaging patients in R&D
