The AIM, a sub-market of the LSE,
allows smaller companies from any sector/ country to float shares with a
more flexible regulatory system compared to the Main Market. Launched in
1995, it has over 2,500 listed companies, raising more than 34 billion
sterling pounds in the process. To join AIM, companies do not need a
particular financial track record or trading history. There is also no
minimum requirement in terms of size or number of shareholders.
Specialist advisers, which are crucial to the market's success, range
from dedicated Nominated Advisers (Nomads) who play a central role in
the life of an AIM company, to consultants, lawyers and accountants. We
act as dedicated consultants in this respect.
The Indian companies which have already listed on AIM are Great Eastern
Energy Corporation, Noida Toll bridge and property funds like Raheja,
Hiranandani, Ishaan and Unitech (Rs. 3,000 crores) with numerous
companies in the process of listing like UTV.
