MTA’s STAR segment is dedicated to middle sized companies with a market capitalization between €40 million and €1 billion, which respect transparency, corporate governance and liquidity requirements.
Barbara Lunghi, Head of Primary Markets, Borsa Italiana, comments:
“We are very pleased to welcome Unieuro on the STAR segment. Listing represents an important step for the company with an already strong history of constant growth, this is a move forward to increase their own business through accesses to capital markets. STAR companies are particularly appreciated by international investors, a fundamental asset for the industry of reference”.
