Those who do not deal daily with stocks, stock markets and the like sometimes find it difficult to understand what the technical terms really mean. Not everyone knows spontaneously what market capitalisation or the Prime Standard is or why a start-up should get to know Scale. The new episode of the podcast series “Road to IPO” provides a remedy: it explains what a stock exchange segment is, what Deutsche Börse offers and what prerequisites accompany the individual segments.

In the podcast, Joel Kaczmarek, editor-in-chief of digital kompakt, talks to Nicole Maares from Deutsche Börse and Dirk Weyerhäuser from the private bank Hauck & Aufhäuser.
