Novo Nordisk has overtaken several international giants in 2022 measured on market value.

The Danish pharmaceutical company’s equity appreciated by 27% this year and closed at record prices several times. Thus, the company is advancing on the list of the world’s largest listed companies. Novo Nordisk is currently number 27 with a company valuation of almost USD 300bn, according to the list published shortly before Christmas.

Pfizer is just at Novo Nordisk’s heals with a USD 290bn market value. Novo Nordisk is above big names like Coca-Cola, Disney, Bank of America, Nike and Alibaba.
