Consumer firms are staying private longer, sidestepping IPOs

Experts point to improved liquidity and growth in secondary markets as factors behind the shift.

Reported · Written up by our desk · Fund Industry

CNBC Markets and CNBC Finance report that more consumer companies are choosing to remain private for longer, rather than pursuing an IPO. The shift is tied to changes in market structure, including the rise of secondary markets and a stronger liquidity environment that make it easier for private companies to access capital without going public right away, according to experts cited by CNBC.

The companies are also avoiding the IPO road as conditions for private-market trading improve, the outlets said.
