German Giants Thyssenkrupp, Ottobock, BASF Plan IPOs by 2027
German companies are preparing for Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) in the coming years. Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems and Ottobock are among those planning to list by 2026 and 2025 respectively, while BASF's Agricultural Solutions division targets 2027. IPOs allow companies to raise capital and investors to buy shares early.
An IPO is a company's first sale of shares to the public. The primary purpose is to raise capital for expansion, debt reduction, or new projects. Shares are offered in lots, with retail investors able to apply for a minimum of one lot, up to a certain limit. To buy IPO shares, you need a Demat account to hold shares electronically and a trading account to buy and sell.
After an IPO, anyone with a trading account can buy the company's shares on the stock exchange. You can apply for an IPO through ASBA (Application Supported by Blocked Amount) or UPI (Unified Payments Interface). If an IPO is oversubscribed, you might not get shares, or only a portion, and the shares will reflect in your Demat account on the listing day.
For investors, an IPO provides an opportunity to buy shares of a company early, potentially benefiting from future growth. However, beginners should research the company's fundamentals, diversify investments, and consider a long-term perspective.
Upcoming IPOs in Germany present opportunities for investors to participate in the growth of these companies. As with any investment, thorough research and a long-term view are crucial for making informed decisions.
