IPO support
We provide services either as an advisor to management and owners, or as an independent auditor responsible for providing opinions and verifying financial information in the prospectus.
We have been working together with investment banks, law firms, auditors, financial advisors and other parties involved in the listing process. We believe that a close cooperation with the company and other stakeholders is essential for a successful IPO.
We have broad, in-depth knowledge of rules and regulations and standard global practices for public offerings and capital market operations.
Our global network of advisors enables us to continually analyse developments and trends in markets across the world, and we take advantage of this ability in the interests of our local clients. We do not apply universal solutions, but instead take an individual approach to each situation. Our knowledge and experience help you to develop solutions for operating in capital markets that are tailored to your specific needs.
