| An
initial public offering (IPO) is the first time that the stock of a
private company is offered to the public. IPOs are often issued by
smaller, younger companies seeking capital to expand, but they can also
be done by large privately owned companies looking to become publicly
traded. In an IPO, the issuer obtains the assistance of an underwriting
firm, which helps determine what type of security to issue, the best
offering price, the amount of shares to be issued and the time to bring
it to market. |
