At DLT Group, our name encapsulates our core focus: Distributed Ledger Technology. We are more than a financial consulting firm; we are architects of transformation. Our mission is to seamlessly bridge visionary companies - especially those operating in blockchain and artificial intelligence - with the capital market. Our seasoned investment bankers possess a deep understanding of disruptive technologies, positioning us at the forefront of innovation.
As strategic allies of Ample Capital Group, a prominent local corporate finance boutique in Hong Kong, we inherit a legacy of excellence. Navigating Hong Kong’s intricate IPO landscape demands precision. Our professional team deftly manoeuvres through the strictest regulatory channels, ensuring unwavering compliance. Notably, Ample Capital was once the top three in terms of successful IPOs in Hong Kong and outpaced international investment banks, boasting over two decades of experience.
Our collaboration guarantees unparalleled execution, drawing upon our robust underwriting capacity with more than HK$3 billion raised throughout Ample Capital’s establishment. Unlike most financial consultants in Hong Kong, we have walked the entire NASDAQ IPO journey - from inception to listing. We intimately understand the intricacies - the investor roadshows, due diligence, and pricing strategies. Our hands-on experience is our competitive edge.
But our story extends beyond financial expertise. Our founders are not distant financiers; they are early investors in cryptocurrencies, crypto-exchanges, and AI startups. Their battle-tested insights fuel our team’s strength.
In this era where technology reshapes industries, DLT Group stands as the bridge between innovation and capital. Join us as we redefine the future.
The U.S. equity market is mainly composed of three major exchanges:
New York Stock Exchange ( NYSE )
Nasdaq ( NASDAQ )
In addition to the three major exchanges, the United States also has equity trading provided by OTC market, for instance Pink Sheet, which is characterized by no strict disclosure requirements but has limited liquidity.
The U.S. stock market has the highest trading volume and liquidity in the world, allowing investors to buy or sell stocks quickly. Compared with Hong Kong's listing system that is biased towards regulatory review, the United States adopts a listing system that is biased towards registration and information disclosure, making the listing process more efficient and saving a lot of costs.
Convenient refinancing policy is one of the major advantages of listing on NASDAQ. For example, Aptorum Group Limited ( NASDAQ: APM ), this Hong Kong company issued about 760,000 shares in 2018 and raised approximately USD 12 million for its IPO on the NASDAQ Global Market. The company conducted several rounds of fundraising activities from 2020 to February 2021 and raised approximately USD 38 million in total.
Some small-cap listed companies have a high volatility in stock price. Moreover, there is a market value of shell, partially due to the circumvention of certain listing requirement, commonly known as backward listing or reverse takeover. NASDAQ is generally more forgiving compared to Hong Kong Stock Exchange in this regards.
