Insurance tech company Slide aims to raise $340 million in US IPO

Insurance tech company Slide is aiming for a valuation of up to $2.12 billion in its U.S. initial public offering, joining a lineup of insurance companies that have made impressive stock market debuts in recent weeks.

The company’s roadshow launch follows stellar listings in recent weeks from eToro and Circle, underscoring a revival of investor appetite for market debutants after months of dealmaking paralysis from U.S. policy turbulence.
