Euroequity Issue

(redirected from Euroequities)

Euroequity Issue

An IPO that occurs on two exchanges in two different countries at the same time. Euroequity IPOs allow as many investors as possible to take advantage of the IPO; this increases the possibility that the newly public company will raise more capital in a round of financing. Euroequity is nearly always placed by an international underwriting syndicate.

As would be expected, larger firms favor Euroequities, and the average Euroequity issue is larger than the average domestic-equity issue, by a factor of more than three ($204.
There appear to be significant differences in the holdings of Euroequities and domestic equities among different investor groups.
