Obesity therapies: Weighing the impact

Obesity is among the world’s largest public health crises, with the number of impacted adults projected to jump 50% by 2030.

 During the past year, treatment methods have rapidly evolved. There is heightened enthusiasm around prescription weight loss drugs, especially GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide 1) medications, which were originally developed to treat Type II diabetes. GLP-1s¹ can regulate appetite and have emerged as a new generation of anti-obesity drugs after showing strong efficacy in helping non-diabetics lose weight.

 So what does the future hold for these medications, and what could the impact be on society, the economy, the healthcare sector, and more? The UBS Chief Investment Office (CIO) invites you to a deep-dive conversation with Dr. Jamie Kane, Director, Northwell Health Center for Weight Management, and Paul Donovan, Chief Economist, UBS Global Wealth Management, hosted by Anthony Pastore.
