 Introduction
 Division of pharmaceutical market
 Overview of emerging market
 Difference between Regulated and Emerging Market
 Registration Requirement For Rest Of the World
 Queries raised by various ROW countries
 Comparative study of Registration requirements of emerging
countries
ROW COUNTRIES
 ROW refers to the Rest Of The World countries, also known as the
emerging market or semi regulated market.
 These regions consist mainly the countries from Asia pacific, Latin
America, Eastern Europe, Africa and Gulf countries.
 Countries from Asia pacific and Gulf have harmonized their regulatory
environment upto some extent through The Association of Southeast
Asian Nations (ASEAN) and Gulf Co-operation Council (GCC)
organizations.
 ROW countries need to harmonize regulations in their respective
regions.
IMPORTANCE OF HARMONIZATION
 Reduction in the cost involved in availability of drugs.
 For maintaining quality requirement of premise.
 Because of the regional registration requirements.
INTRODUCTION
 Regulatory requirements are harmonized in regulated countries by
Common technical document (CTD) filing, while there is a diversity
of requirements in emerging markets.
 There are different requirements in different countries for
registration. It is difficult for any company to develop product for each
region. Therefore one needs to consider majority of requirements
during technical data submission which will help in export
registration.
PHARMACEUTICAL MARKET IS DIVIDED INTO FOLLOWING GROUPS
1. Regulated Market:
US, EU (UK, Germany, France, Ireland, and Sweden etc.), Japan, Canada, Australia,
New Zealand, and South Africa.
2. Semi regulated Market:
(a) Asia: (Sri-Lanka, India, Bangladesh, China, Pakistan, Bhutan, Nepal).
(b) ASEAN: 10 Countries group - Philippines, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand,
Indonesia, Laos, Cambodia, Brunei Darussalam, and Myanmar.
(c) African countries: (Algeria, Zambia, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique,
Namibia, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Tanzania, Zimbabwe etc.)
(d) Middle East countries: (Gulf Co-operation Council countries i.e. Bahrain, Kuwait,
Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE)
(e) Latin America (Mexico, Brazil, Panama, Peru, Guatemala, Argentina, Chile,
Dominican Republic)
(f) CIS: (common wealth of independent states): Russia, Ukraine, Post Soviet States
(Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kirghizstan, Moldova, Tajikistan,
Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan etc.)

EMERGING MARKET OVERVIEW
 The optimization in requirements is mandatory keeping in mind the incidence of
higher cost involved in availability of drugs, research and development facilities.
 The WHO and other developed country drug regulatory authorities, should be
encouraged and supported so that they can expand their current programmes
which are supporting to developing countries.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN REGULATED AND EMERGING MARKET
 There is difference in degrees of implementation of regulations.
 Intensity of conducting audits and inspections is different.
 In case where GMP is violated, then penalties for both are different.
 Regulated market guidelines are very clear unlike that of the emerging markets.
 Regulated market adhere 100% to the guidelines whereas no such adherence is
observed in the emerging market as the regulations are not harmonized.
 There is a difference in their region.
 They also differ in certain aspects such as regulation of Pharmaceuticals, using
different Guidelines for registration, registration fees, requirements to maintain
registration, duration of registration, Patent regulation and legislation for the drug.

CONCLUSION
 Any export market demands good quality dossier which can be
generated through systematic Formulation Development.
 The proper planning and execution of Formulation development will
help in quality dossier & in answering queries from Regulatory
authorities.
 Asia Pacific market is expected to grow from USD 187 billion to USD
275 billion because of the low cost availability of generic medicines,
growth of business, rising income.
 Moreover China has become a major market number two global
pharmaceutical market.
 Now the concepts have changed from ‘developing’ to ‘emerging’ and
now to growth markets.
