According to our new research report, “Emerging Medical Tourism in South Korea”, advanced technology used for the treatment and the government initiatives are likely to fuel growth in the South Korean medical tourism industry. Despite the gloomy outlook for the world economy, the medical tourism industry in South Korea witnessed an impressive growth of more than 55% in 2008 over the previous year.
An increase in the number of medical tourists in South Korea is mainly accredited to the advanced technology used by the hospitals for the treatment of patients, says RNCOS report. Hospitals are equipped with the highly advanced technology for the treatment of cardiac, spinal and other types of surgeries. Moreover, the technology used for the treatment is 90% that of developed nations and just one third of the cost of America and other western nations.
Besides this, the government of South Korea is also trying to attract more medical tourists with its high quality medical care. Recently, it has allowed hospitals to market themselves to foreign patients. To further boost the industry, the South Korean government has amended its immigration policies allowing overseas patients as well as their family members to obtain long-term medical visas. It has also modified laws permitting local hospitals to undergo joint ventures with overseas hospitals in some of the cases.
The research report, “Emerging Medical Tourism in South Korea”, provides an in-depth analysis of the present and future prospects of the South Korean medical tourism industry. It thoroughly studies the medical tourism industry with focus on different parameters like inbound tourism, expenditure by inbound tourists, medical tourists, expenditure by medical tourists and healthcare infrastructure.

Fruit Juices to drive UK Health Drinks Market
|
|
|
After the UK government’s message of five fruit and vegetable portions per day, the popularity of juices has increased immensely in the country. A similar trend is also seen in the fruit smoothie’s category, again thanks to the five-a-day campaign.
Fruit juices will be the fastest and one of the largest segments of the UK soft drinks market. Rising popularity of drinking juice, while out and about, could be the key for further growth in this market. Besides, rising number of juice bars (on trade), new product innovation, changing consumer behavior, preference for health drinks and healthy lifestyle will also boost the fruit juice consumption in the UK.
According to a Senior Research Analyst at RNCOS, “The ongoing recession will not affect the consumption of fruit juices in the UK much and the consumption growth will only fall marginally in the next 8-10 months. The market will maintain healthy growth momentum on the back of changing consumer preference. It is anticipated that the demand for economical private label products and in-house developed products in supermarkets and hypermarkets will rise as compared to premium and branded products as consumers will try to maintain their fruit juice intake level. Despite shift in preference and slight slowdown in growth, fruit juices will remain an important segment of health drinks market and continue to drive the industry growth.”
“UK Health Drinks Market”, a recent report by RNCOS, comprehensively discusses the health and energy drinks market in the UK with focus on market trends in all the segments to help client identify the segment with highest potential. It also provides an overview on past, current and future scenario of various product segments to present a clear picture on sales and consumption pattern.
The RNCOS research provides forecast on retail sales of fruit juices, still & juice drinks, sports & energy drinks, and smoothies. It takes into account the changing consumer preferences and behavior while predicting the future direction of the market.

Check Cards Growing Sharply in South Korea
|
|
|
With the enhancement of various benefits and the expansion of scope available for settlements, the number of check cards in South Korea is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of over 36% between 2009 and 2013, according to our new research report titled “South Korean Payment Card Market”.
The sharp rise will chiefly be attributed to the fact that the use of check cards is possible 24 hours a day at merchants, very longer hours than debit cards. Secondly, deposit holders even aged over 14 are entitled to use check cards, regardless of their credit status, and check card holders can get additional services according to use such as the accumulation of points.
Our analysts also believe that the ongoing gloomy economic environment will not have any negative impact on the check cards. In fact, the environment will stimulate growth in such cards as they have comparatively less delinquency risk involved to issuers. However, the growth rate of other cards like credit cards may be adversely affected by recession. Issuers are hesitating in issuing new credit cards due to the fear of bad debts.
Our findings also indicate that the card (including all kinds of cards) penetration in South Korea is quite high. It is second the highest in the world after the United States. Each South Korean holds on an average of 3.8 cards, which is quite high as compared to other emerging markets in the world.
“South Korean Payment Card Market” provides an extensive research and in-depth analysis of the South Korean payment card market. It studies the emerging market trends, recent developments and their impact on the market. The report will help clients to analyze the leading-edge opportunities, prospective customer base, key players, expected future outlook and all the other factors which are critical for the success of a new entrant in the South Korean payment card market.

RNCOS Releases a New Report- Wind Power: Opportunities in Emerging Markets
|
|
|
RNCOS has recently added a new Market Research Report titled, “Wind Power: Opportunities in Emerging Markets” to its report gallery. Power is the backbone of any economy in today’s world. But the high price of fossil fuel is forcing countries to focus on renewable energy sources. So the technologically-developed countries have replaced a considerable portion of their fossil fuel power with renewable sources to sustain their concrete growth. But, according to "Wind Power: Opportunities in Emerging Markets”, emerging countries, who have just started their journeys, too need to maintain a robust power supply because
- Most of the emerging economies are preferred destinations for industrial and manufacturing plant set up by developed countries.
- Development of power grid connectivity has boosted up the power consumption.
- Increasing population has fuelled the power requirement in developing economies.
However, rising fossil fuel prices are challenging the growth potential of these countries. Therefore, like developed countries, these nations too are adding renewable sources in their power mix.
For most of the emerging countries, wind power seems to be the best choice as it is relatively low cost than other renewable sources and is a cleaner source of energy. With technological development, wind will become a highly competitive source for power generation, creating business opportunities for manufacturing and material innovations. This, in turn, will boost the manufacturing sector of the emerging countries.
To analyze the market potential for wind industry in the emerging economies, we have selected countries based on various aspects, like market performance and power generation sources. This report also provides a brief description on key turbine manufacturing companies present in the emerging economies.
Key Findings of the Report
- Total wind power installation in People’s Republic of China is projected to cross 100 GW by the end of 2020.
- Wind power industry will be the major focus area in India during its 11th Five Year Plan.
- By the end of 2009, wind power installation in Turkey is anticipated to reach slightly less than 1 GW.
- In 2009, Brazil’s cumulative wind power installation is likely to exceed 1 GW mark.
- It is expected that the wind power generation in Poland will go beyond 26 TWH by the end of 2020.
- Egypt’s wind power installation is projected to cross 1 GW mark in 2009.
Key Issues and Facts Analyzed in the Report
