IPO and Private equity

We have already discussed benefits of an initial public offering. It enables you to raise huge amounts of capital, attract more attention from media and investors. When you go public shares of your company are like currency which can be traded which means that you can raise more capital by selling more shares.

Many of our clients who wish to go public also need private equity financing along way. Even though our IPO process only takes between four and six months, companies need operating capital in order to continue building their businesses while waiting for the various IPO processes such as the SEC, FINRA, market makers and more.

In simple terms private equity financing means that some individual or firm will invest in your company for a percentage of business. For a long time private equity investors only did business with large multi million dollar companies. Recently they have expanded into small business financing. It has its advantages from traditional loans. Not only you don't have to pay back monthly rate and interest, private equity companies have more flexibility.
