"Q3 marked the most active IPO quarter since 2021, fueled by renewed investor appetite and a surge in high-growth tech listings. While the government shutdown introduces procedural delays at the SEC, historical precedent suggests the impact on Q4 IPOs may be modest—especially if the closure is brief. Strong investor demand and a healthy pipeline could help the market absorb short-term disruptions." Craig Clay, President of Global Capital Markets, DFIN
