Description of Unlocking Wall Street's Mega Dollar Resources

Over the next two years there exists an unprecedented opportunity for non-U.S. corporations to gain access to the world's largest and most successful financial markets on Wall Street. This opportunity occurred when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) modified the requirements for foreign corporations to qualify for the stock exchanges in the United States. In 1997, The New York Stock Exchange alone set a goal to add 350 foreign company listings to its exchange.

Why is this significant? In the past, foreign corporations were often limited to only one outlet for raising capital - their own country's exchanges. Now, with the modified requirements in the U.S., foreign corporations can unlock the door to the global financial resources of the largest and most successful stock market in the world.

Unlocking Wall Street's Mega Dollar resources was written as a 'how to' guide for owners and executives of privately-owned businesses in Europe who want to gain access to the billions of dollars of investment capital on Wall Street. It explains the SEC regulatory environment, the steps that need to be taken, the timing of an offering, the financial deal you can expect, and what your business needs to attract Wall Street's interest. The book is written with the business owner and entrepreneur in mind and is not meantb to be a scholarly report. Rather, it is intended to be an easy-to-read, step-by-step manual that will walk you through the entire process of listing on Wall Street.
