Today's Public Market Environment

What's the status of the Initial Public Offerings (IPO) marketplace today? The answer, which many of us may already be aware of, is that the success of an IPO is market driven – when the market is down, flat or slowly rising - IPOs are often non-existent. IPOs are successful during bull markets where the investment community and underwriters have the ability, and confidence, to get them completed.

This brings us to the reverse merger - the product of the 2000's - Why is that? The reason is reverse mergers are cheaper, quicker, more certain and less complicated to complete than the traditional IPO. Throughout our website we will walk you through the past, present and future of this product offering.
