After record high-levels of IPO activity in 2021, volatile market conditions have resulted in a significant slowdown during the first quarter of 2022.

STUDY OF DECLINE IN FUNDRAISE IN 2022

STUDY OF DECLINE IN FUNDRAISE IN 2022

27

The sudden reversal can be attributed to a range of issues, both emerging and residual. These include the rise in geopolitical tensions; stock market volatility; price correction in over-valued stocks from recent IPOs; growing concerns about a rise in the commodity and energy prices; the impact of inflation and potential interest rate hikes; as well as the Covid-19 pandemic risk continuing to hold back full economic recovery.

Issuance and proceeds are well off last year's pace, as geopolitical uncertainty along with other macro factors continues to affect investor sentiment . We are witnessing the largest IPO (of LIC) in Indian capital markets and the successful closure of other recent IPOs. The backlog of IPOs could lead to a strong upswing in volumes if volatility does moderate and earnings are robust

CONCLUSIONS

From the number of IPO issues graph, we conclude that there has been a decline in the number of IPO being issued due to increase in time complexity and low return to investors.

CONCLUSIONS

From the revenue generated graph, we observe there have been a positive impact on the issuers to raise capital and a major factor in this success is due to the big financial lenders showing interests in IPOs.

CONCLUSIONS

From the success-failure ratio graph, we interpret that the failure rate has been significantly less and the major reason for this has been the underwriter which has ensured the minimum capital to be raised by the issuers through this process.
