Underwriter

We help raise capital

An IPO is usually preceded by a search for capital to bring new investors into a company. It is also common that, once a company is listed on the stock exchange, it needs to raise additional capital to finance its organic and inorganic growth.

At PKF Attest, the only professional services firm that owns a Securities Company, we offer placement services to our clients. We have an extensive institutional investor base:

  • Fund managers

  • Insurers

  • Family offices

  • Private benches, etc.

We help you throughout the entire capital raising process, from the analysis of the investment opportunity, to the optimization of the Equity Story, and the organization of the roadshow.

Investor Relations

We help you to manage your relationship with investors

Frequent contact with the current and potential shareholder base is essential during the entire period of the stock market, and allows issuers to have a broad and stable base of shareholders.

To this end, it is essential to have an Investor Relations Plan that, in a planned and recurring manner, allows companies to maintain regular contact with their current and future shareholders.

In PKF Attest, we have a multidisciplinary team, formed by financial consultants and experts in capital markets, which allows its clients to deploy and execute, in a satisfactory way, the Investor Relations Function. Some of our services:

FAQS about Equity Capital Markets

I have a Socimi but I do not want to give entry to more investors, can I list it?
Yes, in markets such as BME Scaleup, the minimum shareholder spread requirement does not apply, and allows companies to be listed even if they have only one shareholder.
What is Dual Listing?
Dual Listing consists of being listed on two markets at the same time, such as BME Growth and Euronext Growth. Among other advantages, it allows companies to access a broader investor base.
Who are the key players involved in an exit to BME Growth/Scaleup?
The Registered Advisor, the Legal Advisor, BME, the Auditor, the Valuation Entity, and the listing company itself.
Do I lose control of my company if I decide to go public?
You do not lose control of the company when you go public, not at all. The regulation allows reference shareholders to maintain control of their companies, even if they decide to go public.
How long does it take to enter a Growth Market?
It is a process that lasts between 4 and 7 months, depending on the involvement of the different stakeholders, including the company itself.
