Regulators are urging companies to keep initial public offerings (IPOs) affordable as part of efforts to restore confidence in stock markets. The move comes amid concerns that high listing prices may deter smaller investors and weaken public trust. Authorities emphasize that accessible pricing could help broaden market participation and sustain long-term growth. The push highlights ongoing debates over balancing investor access with corporate fundraising goals.
