ESADE Bussiness School Alumni association recently organized a webinar about investment opportunities in the Spanish nursing home industry. The environment in which this event has taken place is one in which the population over 65 years of age has increased by one million in the last decade. In this time, the global capacity of long term care facilities for the elder has only increased by 12.353. These are public data recently published by the Imserso (Spanish Institute of ageing  and social services).  If the right ratio for nursing home beds for 100 people over 65 is 5% , in Spain the ratio is 4.21. Nine years ago it was 4.56. To comply with the benchmark, Spain should increase the number of nursing home beds by 70.000 places, 18.4% more than the current 381,158. The president of Healthcare Activos, a firm specialized in long term care investment and health real estate assets, proposed the reordering the nursing home sector in the face of the Covid-19 health crisis.
