Choosing great IPOs
OnMarket
Floats have got bigger and more foreign companies are listing. It is not uncommon to hear some investors declare they won’t be investing in initial public offerings (IPOs) because they supposedly have higher risk. Headlines such as “Investors grow nervous as floats start to sink” perpetuate this view. Yet robust returns on IPOs suggest the exact opposite. If you had invested the same amount in every IPO on ASX last year, the return would have been 23 per cent by year’s end, which easily outstrips the total return for the S&P/ASX 300 over the same time, of negative 1.87 per cent.

At OnMarket, we are all former capital markets professionals who thought there was a better way for companies to raise capital, so we provided the know-how behind the technology that powers the world's first exchange-hosted capital raising platform: ASX BookBuild. This platform gives companies control over pricing and allocations combined with the all-of-market reach of an exchange.
Then, in our quest to bring companies and investors closer together, we built OnMarket - the world's first free-access portal into capital raisings.
We are strong believers in the power of technology to transform capital markets and we believe that democratising access to capital raisings via technologies like ASX BookBuild and OnMarket is a giant leap in the right direction.
