abrdn Healthcare Investors

abrdn Healthcare Investors (HQH) is a London-listed closed‑end investment trust that seeks long‑term capital growth and income from a focused portfolio of global healthcare equities. Managed by abrdn, the trust typically invests across pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical devices and healthcare services, often holding a concentrated set of high‑conviction positions. As a closed‑end vehicle, HQH can trade at a premium or discount to its net asset value (NAV) and its market capitalisation is roughly $1.04 billion. Key attractions for investors include sector exposure to ageing populations and innovation in drugs and devices, but the concentrated, sector‑specific nature of the trust brings heightened sensitivity to regulatory decisions, clinical trial results and R&D outcomes. Currency movements and geographic exposure can also affect returns.
