Hong Kong is on track to host 180 to 200 IPOs raising about HK$400 billion in 2026, up from the previous forecast of 150 listings raising HK$300 billion to HK$350 billion, The Standard reported, citing accounting firm BDO.
The city has recorded about 100 listings raising HK$260 billion so far this year, including 16 IPOs that raised more than HK$60 billion in the first half of July, according to the report.
BDO reportedly expects listing activity to remain strong in the second half, with momentum potentially carrying into 2027 as a sizable IPO pipeline and solid investor demand continue to support the market despite global uncertainties.
