Customer preferences: Investors worldwide are increasingly seeking opportunities in emerging markets due to the potential for high returns. They are also showing a growing interest in technology and sustainable companies, reflecting a shift towards innovative and environmentally conscious investments.

Trends in the market: In the United States, the IPO market is booming with a surge in tech companies going public to capitalize on investor appetite for growth stocks. On the other hand, in China, regulatory changes have impacted the IPO market, leading to a slowdown in new listings. In Europe, there is a trend towards smaller IPOs by companies looking to raise capital for expansion.

Local special circumstances: In India, the IPO market is driven by a mix of tech startups and traditional businesses looking to raise funds for expansion. The country's large population and growing middle class present a significant market opportunity for companies going public. In Brazil, political and economic instability has affected the IPO market, with companies being cautious about going public in such uncertain times.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: The global economic recovery post-pandemic has boosted investor confidence and created a favorable environment for companies looking to go public. Low interest rates and ample liquidity in the market have also contributed to the growth of the IPO market worldwide. Geopolitical tensions and regulatory changes, however, continue to pose risks to the stability of the IPO market in various regions.
