Can Unlisted Company come with an IPO?
Yes, an unlisted market company can choose to go public through an Initial Public Offering (IPO). Going public through an IPO allows the company to list its shares on a recognized stock exchange and offer them to the general public for trading.
When a company decides to go public, it typically hires investment banks and other financial institutions to manage the IPO process. These institutions help the company with various tasks such as conducting due diligence, determining the offer price, preparing the necessary documentation, and marketing the offering to potential investors.
During the IPO, the company issues new shares to the public and existing shareholders, such as early investors or employees, may also have the opportunity to sell their shares. The company raises capital by selling its shares to investors, and in return, the investors become shareholders of the company.
