I would like to give you some interesting statistics of 2011 in this article. As most of you know, I specialize in IPO on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (along with other equity and debt offerings, mergers and acquisitions and private equity transactions). Statistics on capital markets and market conditions are important to me.

Here, I am giving you a breakdown of the top 10 IPO equity funds raised on global stock exchanges in 2011. I am proud to say that HKEx is ranked number one in IPO equity funds raised in 2011.
