An Initial Public Offering (IPO) is the process of issuing shares of a private company to the public.
A public share issuance allows a company to raise capital from investors, transitioning from a private to a public company. That’s why an IPO is also commonly known as “going public.”
After the IPO, the company remains publicly listed on the market and its shares are traded through the exchange.
IPO subscriptions allow you to purchase soon-to-be-issued company shares at an attractive price prior to the issue date. Subscriptions are the first opportunity for non-private investors to buy company shares in the main market. Here you can learn how to take advantage of upcoming IPOs.
You can subscribe online through our IPO Platform. Subscriptions are only available during designated subscription periods.
