  • Bill Ackman's Pershing Square Launches $5 Billion Dual IPO with Unique Share Incentive
    April 29, 2026, 10:49 AM EDT. Billionaire investor Bill Ackman is set to raise approximately $5 billion through a dual initial public offering (IPO) for Pershing Square Capital Management and its new closed-end fund, Pershing Square USA, Ltd. (PSUS). The IPO includes PSUS and the publicly listed management company, Pershing Square, Inc. (PS), which bundles three funds. PSUS operates with a higher management fee and restricted liquidity compared to typical exchange-traded funds (ETFs). To attract investors, Ackman is offering an unusual incentive: one share of PS free for every five shares of PSUS purchased. This move seeks to secure long-term investments amid a cautious market, marking the largest closed-end fund IPO ever and the biggest public offering of 2024 so far.
