Is your business ready to risk floatation?
February 22, 2013 Occasional Contributors Corporate Governance, Finance and Accounting

The decision to float your company on the stock market is an important one, possibly the most important one your business will ever have to face, and one that most successful privately-owned companies will need to consider at some stage. Five years after start-up is a common time for companies to start considering floatation, once any teething troubles are ironed out and more capital is required to expand the business.
