This can be particularly useful when implementing a buy-and-build <a href="http://fyers.in/">strategy </a>when cash can be better utilised in other areas. “If you’ve got an objective valuation for your shares, a target company is going to know exactly what they’re getting if you offer them shares in your business,”</li><li><strong>Encourages employee commitment by rewarding them with something of clear value.</strong>When there’s no objective market valuation or ability to buy or sell shares, as is normally the case in a private company, it can be difficult for employees with shares or options to understand the value that they have been given. On the other hand, employees of listed companies who are given shares or <a href="http://fyers.in/">options </a>can see exactly what they are worth.</li><li><strong>Creates a heightened public profile and improves the ability to attract high calibre board members</strong>.</li><li>Improves supplier, investor and customer confidence and improves your standing in the marketplace. <strong>This can help enormously if you’re trying to build a global business</strong>. Listed companies have to go through a rigorous due diligence process before they can join the AIM market.
