By the end of this course, learners will be able to explain IPO and FPO fundamentals, analyze the role of investment banks, evaluate IPO advantages and risks, apply quantitative and qualitative factors in IPO readiness, and differentiate between IPOs and FPOs using valuation-driven methods.

What makes this course unique is its blend of theoretical clarity and practical valuation insights, ensuring learners not only understand IPO mechanics but can also apply professional methods to assess and interpret offerings.

Each module builds logically, culminating in a comprehensive understanding of primary offerings.
The qualitative discussion of share offerings is useful and easy to follow. Whereas the quantitative models for IPO pricing in lectures is more difficult to follow. Maybe written discussion and provided spreadsheets would make the spreadsheet models easier to follow.
