Download GuideListing on the Exchange provides an avenue for firms seeking to raise equity capital for expansion or strategic acquisitions without the need to incur commercial debt. Once listed, a company can issue significantly more equity stake in its enterprise to raise additional working or growth capital through secondary public offerings.
Listing provides a significantly broader shareholder base than it would be otherwise and it provides a market-based and objective valuation of the enterprise. Listing is a key strategic decision that boosts the company's national and global profile, improves overall governance, and its standing as a sustainable business enterprise.
This image positioning ends up attracting other strategic partnerships including cross listings across the region. The benefits of listing include:
Listing enhances the corporate governance of enterprises. The continuous financial disclosure requirements enhance the transparency and public trust of disclosures.
A listed company is highly regarded by the public and its peers for its credibility and excellence with a high level of global recognition. Listed companies are often covered by global media networks and data broadcasting and analysis tools.
Listing increases the credibility of a business enterprise against potential partners and creditors which enables the enterprise to acquire investment and loans at preferable terms than otherwise. Listing also increases the marketability of products and services offered by the enterprise.
Listing provides avenues for companies to provide Stock Option Schemes that can be provided to employees, thereby promoting higher performance, and helping attract and retain talented employees. Various senior executives of a company can be paid through a mix of salary and share options.
Listing transforms liquidity, guaranteeing shareholders the opportunity to realize the value of their investments. Securities that are offered to the public can be transferred in an efficient and transparent manner with market prices determined according to supply and demand.
Listing brings about full or partial decoupling of ownership and management, installs good corporate governance and financial responsibility in the enterprise, and allows successors to benefit from the dividends of a business enterprise that outlives their founders.
Listing provides a strategic avenue for owners, especially institutional investors, to sell the whole or part of the company as part of investment portfolio management. Listing makes it easier to sell publicly traded stocks at their true value than private holdings.
