SPINNING
Spinning is also referred to as ‘IPO spinning’. It is when a brokerage firm or underwriter lures preferred customers by offering them shares in IPO with the purpose of keeping or getting their business. Both party in this deal benefits as the brokerage or underwriter creates a wider client base that loyal and the preferred customer take pleasure in the benefits such as equity gains. This idea of a mutual benefit is only in theory as many find the act of spinning as unethical or immoral.
