Australia braces for IPO rush

摘要

Australia is set for a host of large IPOs, totalling as much as A$7.2bn (US$5.5bn), over the next half-year, providing a welcome boost for equity capital markets bankers after a sluggish start to 2016. Companies such as poultry producer INCHAMS ENTERPRISES, gas and electricity utility ALINTA ENERGY and mining grinding media manufacturer MOLY-COP are all expected to float in the fourth quarter, with forensic software company NUIX and ACCOLADE WINES reportedly planning to list next year.
