Last year, flotations were virtually non-existent, but this year, things look different. A number of companies have been running dual processes – looking at sales and listing options – and the likes of Ocado are planning to float.
We look at the pros and cons of seeking a listing at this stage and weigh up the relative merits of the main exchange, AIM and Invest BX.
We also take the uninitiated through the basic steps of a flotation. What do you need to do? Who do you need to speak to? What are the timings involved? What are the costs? What are the experts’ tips? Should you do it and how do you do it? This article answers those questions.
