NYSE Euronext (NYX), raised more proceeds from Initial Public
Offerings (IPOs) than any other global exchange group in 2011, with
$33 billion in total global proceeds raised from 104 IPOs. In the

NYSE Euronext had 44 new listings, with approximately €150 million

“Despite economic uncertainty and volatile global markets in
2011, NYSE Euronext markets raised more IPO capital than any other
venue globally,” said Scott Cutler, EVP and Co-Head of U.S.
Listings and Cash Execution at NYSE Euronext. “Companies continue
to recognize the value and inherent advantages of listing on NYSE
Euronext markets, including our leading global brand, our trading
platform powered by leading technology, our issuer services
offerings and our unique community strategy that connects issuers
with global business partners and customers.”
“With over 120 filed transactions in our pipeline with
approximately $23 billion expected to be raised, we are encouraged
by the prospects for 2012,” Cutler added. “Young, innovative,
emerging growth companies are the engines of job creation, and
access to capital through IPOs is key to allowing these enterprises
to grow and hire new employees. NYSE Euronext deeply values its
role in supporting this capital raising process.”
Technology Sector Gains
In 2011, NYSE Euronext listed 44% of the technology IPOs in the

“In 2011, our European market continued to welcome SME listings,
including 34 companies from different origins and sectors that
joined NYSE Alternext, the tailor-made platform for small and
mid-cap companies, boosting market capitalization by over €500
million, for a total of €6 billion,” said Diederik Zandstra, Head
