The company claims that last year, 1,755 entities started trading in the exchange, which is almost 31% more than in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, not only the number of issuers grew but also attracted sums increased: 324.14 billion against 203.66 billion USD. The difference is slightly over 59% &mdash; impressive, isnt' it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-which-countries-were-the-leaders-of-ipos\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_countries_were_the_leaders_of_IPOs\"><\/span>Which countries were the leaders of IPOs?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>USA - 392 (22.34%)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Japan - 95 (5.41%)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Canada - 91 (5.18%)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>South Korea - 87 (4.96%)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Australia - 70 (3.99%)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Taiwan - 51 (2.9%)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Indonesia - 49 (2.79%)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>India - 46 (2.62%)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Great Britain - 38 (2.16%)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Other countries - 318 (18.12%).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-companies-from-which-countries-attracted-the-most-money\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Companies_from_which_countries_attracted_the_most_money\"><\/span>Companies from which countries attracted the most money?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Back we go to Refinitiv.
