The natural progression for a privately owned company is to become a publicly traded entity. Despite the added scrutiny of the investing public, institutional investors and government regulators, the power to raise capital through the markets is unprecedented and without equal. The free market and open exchanges have been the underpinnings of wealth, innovation and opportunities, and will continue to play an integral role in ever expanding global economy.

Before making the leap to a publicly traded company, it is necessary to take into consideration the reasons for going public and what it takes to go through the process. How much capital do you really need? Are you ready to handle the reporting and regulatory requirements? Can you afford the infrastructure to support and foster investor relationships? What exchange is best for your listing?
