| dbo:abstract | MedAccess is a social finance company based in London. It is capitalized with $200 million, enabling it to provide loans and financial guarantees designed to increase access to health products, including vaccines, therapeutics, and diagnostic tests, for patients in low- and middle-income countries. MedAccess’s finance reduces market risks facing manufacturers and procurers. One of its most commonly used tools is a volume guarantee. In return for guaranteed sales, manufacturers provide long-term price reductions and assurances of supply security. MedAccess’s guarantees also aim to strengthen markets. Patients benefit from lower costs and more availability as new manufacturers enter the markets while existing manufacturers reduce their prices to compete for market share. The company had provided six guarantees by the end of 2021. The guarantees support access to health products that tackle COVID-19, HIV, malaria, syphilis, and tuberculosis, particularly in Africa and South Asia. (en) |
