The Management Board of Instant Group AG (ISIN DE0005418404, primary market Düsseldorf, stock exchanges Frankfurt, Berlin, Munich, Stuttgart) prepared a 360-degree whitepaper as part of the strategic partnership with Instant IPO SE on the occasion of the legal anchoring of shell companies by the Future Financing Act.
The German government has officially anchored shell companies in the Future Financing Act. This legislation marks a milestone for companies, defines a legal framework and facilitates access to alternative financing options for start-ups and SMEs in particular.
A shell company is a listed company that no longer conducts operational business and whose main purpose is to provide a platform for companies that want to go public and make the process of going public much easier than a traditional IPO.
A shell company is an extremely advantageous way for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in particular to finance their existing business or future growth.
By going public via an existing shell company, companies need to spend far less time and money. This allows them to raise capital faster and realise their financing and growth plans.
IPOs offer companies the opportunity to benefit from the instant visibility that comes with a stock market listing. This helps to boost the confidence of customers, suppliers, potential investors and lenders and further drive the company’s growth.
The Future Financing Act thus paves the way for more efficient and accessible financing for SMEs and strengthens Germany’s position as an attractive location for innovative companies and investors.
