[QUOTE="CarolineC, post: 158647, member: 1590"] Hi all! I recently came across an article analysing Vinted plan to raise 200m through a second shares issue [I](Vinted weighs €200M share sale as sustainable fashion booms, [/I][URL='https://www.ft.com/content/1b144bd4-979f-4bee-b7d2-db98b5bcde28'][I]link[/I][/URL][I]).[/I] I found it interesting given the company is valued at over £3BN while it's still a lossmaking start-up. Moreover, according to the CEO the company is "technically IPO-ready", yet they steer away from going public and look for alternative financing. I found the topic interesting as I regularly use the platform myself. I think it shows a number of trends in the industry generally: - Consumer shift towards more second-hand impacted by the economic situation (inflation). - ESG trends and consumer move towards more sustainable fashion lowering waste and carbon emissions (fast fashion impact). This in turn may further affect the move towards investment opportunities in sustainable technology and LPs expectations). Do you think this would be an appropriate story for a commercial story/topic question for a US law firm with a significant PE focus? If so, how would you go about answering [I][B]how do you think this will impact the firm's clients?[/B][/I] While I can notice larger market trends, I'm not sure what direct impact they would have on the investment funds. Thanks all! [/QUOTE]
