China Flexible Workspace Market Eyeing Consolidation, as WeWork takes on Ucommune: Ken Research

The growth in the market will be driven by growth in the IT and Finance sectors as the major occupiers of flexible workspace in China. The IT sector and the Finance sector in China have been growing with a rate of 27.4% and 7.5% respectively in 2019.
      • It is expected that during the forecast period 2019-2025F, the flexible workspace market in Chengdu, Guangzhou, and Hong Kong on the basis of supply will grow with a CAGR of 15.1%, 15.1%, and 14.4% respectively.
      • Emergence of new regional players such as Hi-Coffee in Chengdu and Compass Office and Garage Society in Hong Kong is driving the supply of flexible workspaces in these cities.
      • It is expected in the coming years; companies are going to shift their focus from rental to non-rental revenue streams such as Business Concierge, Accounting, HR, payroll and Task Management services, and others in order to bring profitability and sustainability in business. This is the turn will drive the demand for flexible workspaces by enterprises and MNC's to save costs or provide mobility for staff.
In-Organic Growth: Flexible workspace operators with heavy financial backing have been following the strategy of mergers and acquisitions in order to expand their regional presence. For instance, Ucommune has acquired 6 flexible workspace operators in 2018 and WeWork acquired NakedHub in 2018 because of which it expanded to 23 new locations in China.
Increase in Enterprise Demand: There has been a rise in demand for flexible workspace by enterprises that are looking for customized office solutions on flexible terms. Enterprises are following the 'hub and spoke' model wherein the corporate head office acts as a hub and flexible workspaces act as spokes.
Movement from Asset Heavy to Asset Light Model: Flexible Workspace Operators are shifting focus from the lease model to asset a light model such as joint venture revenue sharing with landlords, franchise model, and management model. Companies such as Ucommune and MyDreamPlus promote the asset-light model and loss-making SOHO 3Q sold 11 asset-heavy locations and plans to expand using the asset-light strategy.
The report titled "China Flexible Workspace Market Outlook to 2025 - Driven by Rising in Co-working Supply and Shift towards Non-Rental Revenue (Concierge, Accounting, HR, payroll and Task Management services)" by Ken Research suggested that the China Flexible Workspace Market has been increasing due to rising business travelers, changing business strategies, growth in finance and IT sector, expansion in tier 2 cities, an increasing number of localized operators, increasing average center size and increasing demand from MNC's and well, known local companies.

Could entry of Dental Insurance Provider solve the problem of oral awareness & accessibility in India: Ken Research

There is a dire need for upgrading dental infrastructure to improve accessibility and affordability by the poor in India looking at the statistics released by National Health Profile 2019 and WHO through various publications. At ground level, an inadequate number of doctors per population (1:10,926) and no standardization of dental treatment prices across cities have been restricting the penetration of dental care.
Why there is no Standalone Dental Insurance Company in India?
In 2015, Ocare, a Mumbai based company, was the first-ever company to launch dental insurance products in association with ICICI Lombard & New India Assurance. However, owing to scalability challenges & regulations by IRDA, the partnership couldn't succeed and Ocare decided to pause its operations. In December 2017, Ocare applied for a license as a Standalone Health Insurance Provider and to date (Jan 2020), is awaiting the same.
'Lack of data collection by dentists, fragmented nature of dentistry practice and lack of financial inclusion was the common challenges faced by us back in 2016', said Dr. Neeraj Sheth, Founder and Group Director at Ocare talking to Ken Research, India. He further emphasized on the bureaucratic challenges being currently faced by the company to obtain necessary licenses before launching their products.
Where does India stand today?
With marketing efforts from Chain clinics coming up in top cities of India, the population is becoming aware of the need to maintain oral care and undergo preventive treatment on a regular basis. Introduction of government schemes such as Ayushman Bharat Yojana, eDant Seva, etc. are welcoming steps aimed at affordable and accessible healthcare. Yet, there is still a long way to meet the standards set by developed regions.
Is it the right time to enter Dental Insurance in India?
"Mismatch between demand and supply of dental services and non-existence of such product to date paves the way for the entry of Dental Insurance because demand is there", said Dr. Sheth. During its operations in 2016-17, Ocare received tremendous response from dentists and sold more than 100,000 policies. In popular health insurance plans such as Apollo Munich Maxima Plan, Bharti AXA Smart Health, dental treatments find limited coverage and do not cover routine treatment charges.
It is expected that the existence of India dental insurance products would prompt customers from top cities of Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi NCR, and Mumbai to pursue preventive treatment over sick treatment. Higher adoption rates could also bring in the innovative technology and dental medical equipment capable of detecting fatal diseases such as Oral Cancer at early stages.
