Data from Refinitiv shows that 121 companies have listed on the Australian sharemarket so far in 2021, compared with just 84 new listings in 2020. It is the highest level of listing activity since 2007, when 136 companies debuted on the local bourse. Some $6.7bn has been raised via IPOs during 2021, while the proposed floats of Judo Bank and GQG Partners would boost this by around $2bn. IPO activity was subdued earlier in the year, following the fallout from the ill-fated float of Nuix in late 2020.
