Placing the price at a low end initially proved out to be one of the best strategies for the VW
due to which it was able to attract investors and raise an amount of $1.8 billion. This makes
the IPO biggest offering of the year in Europe.
The VW has expected that Traton would be deprived of 11.5 % of the shares which makes it
particularly 27 euros. A value of 13.5 billion euros is estimated for the company that has the
most expensive of the truck companies.
Due to the slow growth of the economy and problems in trade the initial public offerings have
been in a situation of a mixed reception. Also, the company made the decision of selling the
sale foreseeing the market situation which is poor. Becoming active and less centralised was
needed for the VW and this initial public offering of the Traton has been reported as a very
significant towards this cause.
Due to lower rates of interest, the demand has been maintained in the stock markets. Bharti
Airtel Limited is also all set to start the sale of the shares on Friday and the initial offering is
expected to be priced at the lower end of the target.
Bloomberg compiled data due to which European primary offerings have made an 11% return.
These returns include 1.2 billion dollars which as raised by Trainline Plc which is a rail ticketing
company and operates online and the 1.1 billion pound raised by Network international.
