Elon Musk’s SpaceX was the first to use the regimeKnown for his outspoken criticism of Wall Street, Musk used POP to tap amateur investors in the UK and raised some $364m (£267.9m) throught the platform, according to reports. \n\nWhile the satellite company’s share price has fallen 12.8 per cent since its IPO in June, its success using POP has suggested that other large firms will look to emulate the deal, according to Winterflood, the company that sold share on behalf of SpaceX to retail investors.“When we first did SpaceX, my honest feeling was the POP regime would have a relatively limited use case,” Joe Winkley, head of corporate services at Winterflood, told City AM. “I did not think it was going to be something where there’s a regular deal flow. I think I’m wrong.”\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNews Updates\nStay ahead with our three daily briefings delivering all the key market moves, top business and political stories, and incisive analysis straight to your inbox.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUS sandwich chain Jersey Mike’s has since tapped UK investors through POP, a company Winkley admitted he did not expect to offer shares to amateur investors in Britain.\n\nHe now anticipates POP deals will come from other markets, including Europe and Asia. Many Brits are hoping tech heavyweights Open AI and Anthropic will also follow SpaceX’s lead.“It doesn’t mean every big US IPO is going to include a POP, but I think…there will be more,” Winkley said. “I think there’s quite a strong pipeline.”Industry concernsUnder UK listing rules, such fundraising would normally require the issuer to prepare a prospectus specifically for UK investors, meaning a company cannot use the regulatory documents acceptable in its domestic market in the UK. \n\nUsing POP allows companies to bypass this requirement, leading City figures to raise concerns that it may create a ‘two-tier’ system in which companies can list overseas but still reap the benefits of a UK retail offer without the need for a lengthy prospectus.But Winkley disputed these claims, arguing the broker performs its own due diligence prior to completing an offer.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"corporation","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"isLaohu8Offline":false,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.48.0","shortVersion":"4.48.0","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2664358108","isCrawlerRequest":true}
