Debuts number increase on the Warsaw Stock Exchange

According to the report of PwC analysts: companies all over Europe are more and more willing to use capital on stock exchanges, and the value of all IPOs made on European stock exchanges last year amounted to  €75 billion. There is also a greater interest in primary offers on the WSE.

Last year, 48 debuts took place on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. Every third of them took place on the Main Market, and 32 companies debuted on the NewConnect market. The total value of debuts on both stock exchanges amounted to almost PLN 9.5 billion. The biggest debut on the WSE was the IPO of the Pepco group, which was also in the top ten IPOs in the second quarter of 2021 in Europe.

“We will remember last year as a year of a large number of debuts. For the sustainable development of the capital market, we should have approximately 2 debuts on NewConnect, 2 on the Main Market, and 1 on the Catalyst market per month for the bond market to develop evenly,” Marek Dietl, President of the WSE Management Board, said.

This year, five companies have already made their debut, including one on the Main Market.
