AMR Action Fund 2022

A Comparative Review of Implemented and Emerging Pull Incentives

The Lancet Regional Health Europe published an open-access analysis of 28 pull incentives, 20 of which have been implemented and eight of which are in development. AMR Action Fund’s Deepali Patel co-authored the analysis, which compared product and company eligibility and evaluation criteria across these incentives.

The authors wrote: Eligibility and evaluation criteria vary substantially across countries in scope and specificity. Company-level obligations on stewardship, access, and environmental safeguards are applied inconsistently, and most comprehensive in the UK and Swedish models. Greater international alignment around a shared core of criteria, while retaining flexibility for national context and operational feasibility, could reduce uncertainty for developers and strengthen the global incentive ecosystem.
