Many of us get intimidated by the mere thought of investing because we don't think that we know enough to even begin. Then there are the terms and jargons that we hear banded about that we have no clue what exactly others are talking about. Two of these terms and abbreviations are IPOs and APOs.  Well, Terise Kettle, VP, Investment Banking - Barita Investments joins us to talk about "What are IPOs and APOs and to explain why companies do them.
