قياس تركيز الصناعة و علاقتها بمؤشرات الأداء في الصناعة الصيدلانية الجزائرية 2010-2018

Abstract EN

Determining the structure of a market for a specific industry is considered necessary to understand the market structure of that industry.

in addition, determining the market structure for an industry contributes to understanding its relationship with the remaining elements of the SCP model for the industry and identifying the relationship between structure and performance by determining the relationship between their most important indicators, namely concentration and profitability.

this is what this study has addressed by examining the Algerian pharmaceutical industry from 2010 to 2018.

the study concluded that the nature of the Algerian pharmaceutical market is competitive, based on a set of concentration measurement indicators, in addition to determining the relationship between the structure of the pharmaceutical industry and its performance, which is an inverse relationship.

this is contrary to what is known and circulated in the literature of industrial economics, led by Joe Bain.
