PSE Electronic Allocation System (“PSE EASy”) was first introduced by the Exchange in June 2019 to increase participation of Local Small Investors (“LSI”) in Initial Public Offerings (“IPO”). This shift to an online platform enabled investors from different provinces and countries, beyond the previous geographic scope of physical kiosks in Metro Manila, to subscribe to the LSI tranche of IPOs.

It is the Exchange’s initiative to maximize this digital solution and to expand the scope of offerings covered by the PSE EASy platform. On top of IPOs, the launch of this new version will accommodate Follow-on Offerings (“FOO”) with the goal of increased participation and ease of accessibility.
