For clients looking to raise larger sums, there are a number of benefits to listing financial instruments on an international exchange. It provides greater global visibility, raises the profile of the business and can be preferred by institutional investors as listing provides greater liquidity than unlisted securities. Listed securities can easily travel through offshore clearing facilities, reach offshore platforms and access international investors

Listing on an international exchange provides overseas investors with visibility and access to UK businesses that they may otherwise be unaware of.
