There is currently a supply problem. Novo Nordisk is building more capacity, but it takes time. Meantime those who are willing to pay more for it, get it. Mostly citizens of rich countries. Novo Nordisk is controlled by the Novo Nordisk Foundation (> 77.1% of votes, 28.1% of capital) with aim to make a positive impact on health, science, and society by generating long-term returns on the assets of the Novo Nordisk Foundation. One of the reasons why Novo Nordisk has been so successful is because their owner takes a long term view in R&D unlike purely profit-seeking owner.
