A company first makes its particular stocks available through an initial Public Offering (IPO). Businesses transition from being ‘private’ to ‘public’ in this manner. In other words, a previously privately held business after the Initial Public Offering turns into a publicly traded business. A stock exchange gives you, as an investor, direct access to the company’s shares. By purchasing these shares, you join the company’s shareholder base.
