finews.ch: IPOX® CEO Josef Schuster on the 'Landmark' Potential of an Emirates IPO and GCC Market Transformation

In an in-depth interview with finews.ch, IPOX® Founder and CEO Josef Schuster discussed the significant transformation of the capital markets in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region and the growing pipeline of high-profile Initial Public Offerings.

Mr. Schuster highlighted the increasing importance of the GCC within IPOX's global investment strategies, noting that the region has evolved from a niche, oil-dependent market to a diversified growth story with dynamic opportunities across technology, healthcare, and logistics.

A key focus of the discussion was the potential IPO of Emirates airline. Mr. Schuster commented on the significance of such an event, stating, “An IPO of Emirates would be a landmark event for global aviation and GCC capital markets. It is a «trophy asset», a mature, premium global brand with a powerful operating franchise.” He added that "very few companies carry the same level of strategic significance and brand strength as Emirates."

The interview also covered the active 2025 IPO climate in the GCC, the strong domestic investor appetite, and how IPOX’s unique methodology focuses on capturing the performance of the "Next Generation of Stocks" in their most dynamic phase post-listing.
