At NT Finance Partners, we provide strategic advisory services to companies preparing for capital markets transactions, particularly Initial Public Offerings (IPOs). Our team consists of highly experienced consultants and partners who have worked in Turkey’s capital markets, publicly traded companies, and international bond issuances for many years. Unlike investment intermediaries, we do not directly facilitate the issuance and sale of securities; instead, we offer comprehensive advisory support to ensure a successful IPO process.

Regardless of whether a company’s shares are listed on Borsa Istanbul (BIST) or not, we offer consultancy services to publicly held companies in accordance with Capital Markets Board (CMB) regulations. Our expertise covers:

✔ Regulatory reporting and disclosure requirements
✔ IPO preparation and securities issuance strategy
✔ Corporate governance framework development
✔ Compliance alignment for company policies and structures

Additionally, our partners can serve as independent board members, providing strategic guidance during and after the IPO process.

Pre-IPO Consulting Services

Companies often require significant capital to expand, invest, and achieve strategic growth objectives. In addition to going public through an IPO, firms may explore alternative financing options such as bond and debt issuances. Entering capital markets is a major strategic decision that requires careful planning. Moreover, IPOs provide an exit opportunity for existing shareholders, allowing them to liquidate part of their investments. Companies that successfully complete a public offering also enhance their corporate governance, transparency, and financial credibility.

To ensure a smooth and compliant IPO process, companies must seek expert advisory services before approaching investment banks or underwriters.

Our goal is to:

✔ Identify potential regulatory challenges early on
✔ Ensure full compliance with Capital Markets Board (CMB) and Borsa Istanbul (BIST) requirements
✔ Prepare the company for investor scrutiny, strengthening financial transparency
✔ Execute the IPO process efficiently and at the optimal time

As project managers, we coordinate all stakeholders involved in the IPO process, including regulatory authorities (CMB & BIST), shareholders, executives, legal advisors, auditors, and financial institutions. We guide our clients through every phase of the IPO, from preparation to post-listing compliance.
