The aim of the paper is to use the comprehensive analysis of IPOs realisation process in order to point out the importance of going public, having in mind both the corporations and investors in the capital market, as well as the economy as a whole. In accordance with the set goal, the paper will present the effects of the realised IPO processes in the countries of Western Europe, China, Japan and the USA. When it comes to developing countries, the IPO of shares on a stock exchange is of special importance, since it contributes to the further development of capital market. Due to the particularity of the Serbian macroeconomic environment, the trends of privatisation process, the insufficient protection of investors, the high level of information asymmetry and the lack of corporate education, there have been no IPO processes realised on the Belgrade Stock Exchange over the past eight decades.

This study verifies whether a relationship exists between the activity of selected companies who access the capital market in search for new financing sources, their development level and their competitive edge.

The Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) was used to assess the development level of selected enterprises. The main recommendations were formulated based on the findings from the analysis of performance ratios and from the comparative and descriptive analysis of data on stock exchange transactions in the wood-based sector. This is because the assumption was made that by becoming more active in the capital market and, as a consequence, by strengthening their competitive position, the enterprises covered by this study may contribute to adding value in the circular economy.
