going public Explanation: "Going public" is the equivalent expression in American English for "salida a ofterta pública" (called "flotation", I believe, in British English, although as already indicated, the reference is to an initial public offering. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 33 mins (2015-11-15 15:14:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- DEFINITION of 'Going Public'--The process of selling shares that were formerly privately held to new investors for the first time.

Flotation allows companies to obtain financing from outside the company instead of using retained earnings to fund a new project or expansion.
