Title: IPO for the Public: on Investments Made by Physical Entities
Abstract: There are many approaches to be used for utilizing the individuals’ potential in order to develop the investment projects. The article author examines the best practices gained when the wide public (the citizens of Russia) were made the project investors for the first time. The examples are examined of using the physical entities’ funds via the IPO of the shares of the large Russian joint stock companies that are well-know both in Russia and abroad. Two years have passed since the date when the IPO project was launched and one can say the project was a failure. The world economic crisis has played a major part in this, of course, but it is clear that one should be extremely careful when dealing with such matters.
