The first half of 2024 saw a resurgence in equity issuance, with 37 IPOs raising over $18 Billion. Companies and their sponsors have capitalized on favorable market conditions. The increase in issuance was underpinned by equity indices trading near all-time highs (the S&P 500 reached 31 all-time highs in 1H 2024) and the VIX remaining consistently below 20 (hitting a new low of 11.86 at the end of May).
