MANILA/HONG KONG, Oct 6 : Philippine fintech firm Mynt began a 53 billion Philippine peso ($844.3 million) initial public offering on Tuesday, offering GCash users the chance to buy shares directly through its app for as little as 660 pesos, the company said in a statement.
If a greenshoe option is exercised, it could become the largest-ever IPO in the Philippines.
• Mynt, the parent of digital wallet GCash, set the offer price at 6.60 pesos per share. The sale runs through October 12, with shares due to start trading on the Philippine Stock Exchange on October 20.
• Users of GStocks PH, a stock trading service offered through GCash by AB Capital Securities, can place orders for at least 100 shares. Orders made on Tuesday and Wednesday will receive an immediate allocation of the first 100 shares, Mynt said.
