Why Is Hyundai Considering an IPO?
Although Hyundai is already a global automotive giant, it is considering an IPO to raise capital for several strategic reasons:
Expanding EV capabilities: Electric vehicles are no longer a niche market as people increasingly embrace electric vehicles. They are the future of transportation, and automakers that fail to invest in this technology risk being left behind. Hyundai aims to establish itself as a global leader in EV technology, and an IPO could provide the capital needed to accelerate its electric vehicle research, development, and production.

Automated driving technology: Hyundai is actively investing in autonomous driving technology. Proceeds from an IPO could help Hyundai increase its stake in cutting-edge self-driving technology and partner with companies that specialize in AI and mobility services.
Strengthening its presence in the global market: Although Hyundai is well established in regions such as Asia, North America and Europe, it aims to further strengthen its presence in emerging markets such as India and Africa. The infusion of IPO funds could boost this global expansion.
