IPO Watch Europe Q4 2012

Although, economic and political conditions remain challenging across Europe, the outlook for Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) is more optimistic than we’ve seen for a long time. The value of IPOs in Europe increased by more than seven-fold year on year in the fourth quarter of 2012, making it the strongest performance since the third quarter of 2011. Overall 70 IPOs raised €7.5bn in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared with 78 IPOs raising €0.9bn in the same period in 2011. In this video Mark Hughes looks at the findings of our latest IPO watch survey.

IPO Watch Europe 2011

A bright beginning to 2011 proved to be something of a false dawn for the IPO market. A total of €16.3bn was raised in the first half of 2011 across the European markets compared to €10.2bn in the last six months of 2011 as markets failed to ignite after the summer as hoped, due to the heightened economic uncertainty in Europe.
