(Alliance News) - Picktan Capital Ltd on Tuesday said it is considering seeking a listing on the London Stock Exchange next year.
The London-headquartered wealth management firm which manages over USD7 billion in client assets globally, confirmed it is in "active" discussions with several London-based investment banks to explore the possibility of a public listing in London in 2026.
The company said it has formally notified its board and shareholders of its intent to pursue a potential initial public offer, with a strategic review underway to evaluate the most effective path to the public markets.
Picktan Capital, which now services more than 9,000 clients across the UK, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, said an IPO would be a "transformational milestone", providing access to additional growth capital and strengthening its presence in global markets.
"While no final decision has been made, we are rigorously evaluating all avenues for a listing," said Jacob Baker, chief finance officer of Picktan Capital.
Picktan Capital has assembled a dedicated internal team to lead the IPO and is also reviewing potential governance changes and operational adjustments required to meet public market standards, including enhanced disclosure protocols and board restructuring.
