OrbiMed Portfolio holdings
OrbiMed is an investment manager focused exclusively on healthcare, running public equity, private equity and private credit and royalty funds. The firm traces its origins to 1989, when Viren Mehta and Samuel Isaly, both pharmaceutical analysts at the bank S.G Warburg, set up the research and money-management firm Mehta & Isaly; in 1998 it split in two, with Isaly forming OrbiMed and Mehta forming Mehta Partners. Its public equity side covers long/short funds built around corporate events as well as closed-end investment trusts, and OrbiMed launched its first dedicated venture capital fund in 2000 and its first royalty and credit fund in 2011. Carl Gordon, Carter Neild and Geoffrey Hsu form the committee that leads the firm, which is owned and controlled by eight members.
