About SquareBook

SquareBook is set to be the next big innovation in the UK primary equity markets.

Part of the FCA Innovation hub, the business is set to revolutionise arguably the most essential part of the UK financial market. SquareBook provides all of the counterparties involved in the IPO process - Retail users, Institutional investors, Investment banks, Research analysts and the Issuers themselves - with a platform to help manage and execute the process in a fair, transparent, inclusive and efficient way.

The SquareBook platform ensures compliance with a number of new regulations set to hit the market over the next 12 months and will revolutionise the IPO process. The IPO market in the UK is worth approximately £10 billion a year in the UK and SquareBook is set to capture a meaningful percentage of that business. With an impressive board in place, SquareBook has raised its seed capital and has begun the process of building a world-class team.

Making Markets Fairer

At SquareBook, we are truly invested in building a platform that will change how the market operates. The business will bring fairness and transparency to the primary equity markets and for the first time, give the retail public the same opportunities as the investment professionals and on the same terms. It will help create the cultural and process changes in the market that the regulator is committed to achieving.

Our tech stack (https://stackshare.io/squarebook) is predominately .NET at the backend with an AngularJS frontend but we understand as a software business that our edge comes from leveraging the best tools and technologies available.
