What is an IPO and how it works
IPO is a process of offering shares of a private corporation to the public in a new stock issuance. Why go public? The primary benefit of going public is easier access to capital.
To go public, a company must have a track record of growth and other favorable results and hire an investment bank (J.P. Morgan, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and BTG Pactual in Vinci Partners case) to come in and underwrite the IPO. The underwriters also performed due diligence and verified financial information and business model.
Once the paperwork done, the company sells the stock to institutional investors. When the initial block of shares has been sold, the company sets an initial price and date for the stock to begin trading on a stock exchange.
About Vinci Partners, financial indicators
Vinci Partners, a Brazil based investment company, is launching its IPO in the NASDAQ on January 27. Vinci is focused on pre-IPO and M&A consulting, while its business includes sourcing and managing client investments in the stock market, real estate, loans, infrastructure, hedge funds, and other investment products. As of September 30, 2020, Vinci Partners managed assets worth $8.70B.
Vinci Partners Investments timed its IPO very well, as people in Brazil are currently moving their savings from government bonds to riskier assets in order to boost their yields. The base rate is currently below 2%, which is incredibly low in comparison with other countries. According to the Brazilian Association for Financial and Capital Markets, Brazil's asset management industry was worth $1.13T last year, which means Vinci services are in high demand in Brazil, and this is a good sign for investors.
How to Buy Vinci Partners Stocks Before the IPO (Offering Price)
In the past, IPOs as highly profitable investments were available only to the privileged customers of the leading brokerage firms and it was challenging for retail investors to gain access. You couldn't buy shares paying the price set by the company and you had to wait until the shares actually start trading on the public stock market at whatever stock price supply and demand allows.
Technologies and marketplaces changed the rules of the game, now regular investors can get pre-IPO shares. To participate in Vinci Partners IPO you need to use an IPO investing app like Freedom Finance (NASDAQ: FRHC), TD Ameritrade or Fidelity. They give its customers access to IPOs and secondary offerings through their existing brokerage account. Also you can buy Vinci Partners shares when the company goes public via a commission-free trading app like eToro.
