An IPO is an initial public offering, in which shares of a private company are made available publicly for the first time, allowing a company to raise equity capital from public investors. Companies must meet specific legal, governance, and accounting requirements imposed by the securities exchanges and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to conduct an IPO.
