What happened
Boston Consulting Group and McKinsey released a joint report examining women's health. The report found that women spend an average of nine years of their lives in poor health, which is 25% more time than men. McKinsey estimates that closing this health gap could add at least $1 trillion a year to the global economy by 2040.

Why it matters
The report noted that women's health captures only 6% of the $2.9 trillion in total private health care investment. Conditions such as menopause and endometriosis receive less than 2% of private health care funding, suggesting a substantial underinvestment in the sector.
