About this course

This course explains how a Pakistani investor can understand, evaluate and participate in an initial public offering. It distinguishes equity and debt offerings, fresh issues and offers for sale; explains the prospectus, book building and fixed-price methods; shows how eligible bidders and retail investors apply; and covers allocation, listing, post-listing monitoring and the principal risks. The course focuses mainly on equity IPOs and does not recommend any issuer or offering.
