Rimac IPO: how to buy Rimac shares
Pre-listing
1. Grey market
Our grey market prices are based on an estimation of a company’s market cap at the end of its first trading day. Our exclusive grey markets let you take a position on this estimation.
If a grey market is offered for Rimac, you can:
‘Buy’ (go long) if you predict that the market cap will exceed the price we quote
‘Sell’ (go short) if you predict that the market cap will be less than the price we quote

2. IPO subscriptions
If offered for Rimac, you could subscribe to the IPO ahead of the listing. If the company grants retail investors access to its shares, your stock will be allocated at the same time and price as institutional investors.

The difference between trading and investing in Rimac shares
Trading Rimac shares with us means that you’ll be speculating on the price movements of the company’s shares with spread bets or CFDs. Since you won’t own the underlying assets, you can speculate on both rising and falling share prices.
Spread bets and CFDs are leveraged products, which means that you can open a position with a deposit – known as margin. Trading with leverage can increase both your profits and your losses, because they’re calculated using a position’s full market exposure, not just the margin requirement to open it.

Investing in shares works differently. Leverage isn’t available, so you’ll need to provide the full cost of the position upfront. This’ll give you direct ownership of the shares, and you’ll earn a profit if the share price rises above the price at which you opened your investment.
You’ll also receive shareholder rights, like voting privileges if the company grants them. Plus, you’ll be eligible to receive dividends according to how many shares in the company you own.

How do IPOs work?
IPOs work by having a company put its shares up for sale to the public. Some common reasons for this include seeking to raise capital for business growth, decreasing or settling debts, positioning itself to better attract and retain talent, or increasing liquidity.
The IPO process starts off with a detailed audit of the company by an external resource – it must be conducted taking all the company’s financials into consideration. Next, a registration statement needs to be prepared by the business and filed with the appropriate exchange commission. If the commission grants approval, the company can then list a set number of shares at a price determined by an investment bank.
