The service is designed for a wide range of companies, both those just beginning to explore the possibilities of obtaining public status and those already preparing for an IPO and wishing to conduct a self-assessment.
The automated self-assessment tool will allow business owners and top managers to anonymously receive an online assessment of the company's maturity for going public and create a checklist of further actions.
As part of the service, a company representative can take an online test on key blocks: finance, corporate governance, operations and legal structure. Based on the test results, an analysis is carried out using a specially developed algorithm. The user can also receive a detailed response, including a structured report that highlights the company's strengths and areas that require attention and improvement before going public, as well as recommendations for further steps.
Natalia Loginova, Director of the Issuer Relations Department of the Moscow Exchange, said:
We see a demand from businesses for new, more technological formats of interaction. By launching this service, we are not just giving companies a convenient mechanism for self-checking. Our goal is to create a modern toolkit for issuing companies that will help them go from a private company to a successful public listing, saving time and resources.
