Together, the companies raised nearly USD 190 bn, a 10% drop from last year and also a three-year low. Across the pond, some 211 companies went public in the United States throughout 2019, but only managed to raise USD 62.33 bn \u2014 nowhere near optimistic projections that this year\u2019s IPO bounty could outpace 1999\u2019s record of USD 108 bn, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/2019-the-year-of-ipo-disappointment-11577615400?mod=hp_lead_pos1\">according to the Wall Street Journal<\/a>. Many of those companies are now trading below the valuations they held as private companies.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s keeping market watchers awake: <\/strong>\u201cThe drop in IPOs comes at a critical juncture for public markets, which have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/50dea950-f5b4-11e9-a79c-bc9acae3b654\">shrunk over the past two decades<\/a>, while private markets \u2014 such as private equity and venture capital \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/2f777656-9854-11e9-9573-ee5cbb98ed36\">have expanded<\/a>,\u201d the FT writes. <strong>Bonus: The piece quotes market sage and Enterprise favourite Mohamed El-Erian.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Across the pond, Aramco\u2019s debut also fell short:<\/strong> The long-awaited IPO of the Saudi Aramco could not live up to Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman USD 2 tn valuation despite the efforts of the kingdom. Once public, the Saudi stock <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/12\/18\/what-were-tracking-on-18-december-2019-8687\/\">has dipped<\/a> though moving up slowly recently.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Egypt saw only two IPOs in 2019<\/strong>, with fintech player Fawry and pharmaco Rameda listing. Egyptian companies pulled back from raising capital after Sarwa Capital\u2019s IPO went sideways in late 2018. A global slowdown in appetite for emerging market IPOs and fears the repeatedly-postponed Aramco would suck liquidity out of the market also played a role. Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.press\/stories\/2019\/03\/05\/eastern-tobaccos-public-offering-42-3-covered-on-second-day-of-subscription\/\">Eastern Tobacco\u2019s 4.5% secondary sale in March<\/a> was the only one of the many sales by state-owned companies to go to market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MEANWHILE- Some of the best returns in 2019 were in \u201cunexpected corners of <\/strong><strong>the market,\u201d <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2019-12-29\/what-putting-10-000-in-these-assets-would-have-returned-in-2019\">Bloomberg<\/a> writes in its rundown of what USD 10k allocated to asset classes including Russia, Greece, Beyond Meat and palladium would have fared this year.<\/p>\n<p class='web-image'><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ent.news\/2019\/11\/CIRA-Blackboard-Banner-B.jpg?ssl=1\" alt='enterprise'><\/p>\n<p><strong>*** It\u2019s Blackboard day: <\/strong>Our every Monday look at<strong> the business of education in <\/strong>Egypt, from pre-K through the highest reaches of higher ed, focuses this week on <strong>how light-touch regulation attracted international branch campuses<\/strong> to Egypt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>End-of-year news slowdown?
