Whitepaper · For IPO-bound founders & CFOs
IPO readiness is measured not just in revenue, but in resilience, controls and governance. This founder guide shows how one often-overlooked dimension — employee healthcare and benefits operations — maps directly to the standards auditors, regulators and institutional investors will test.

Get the whitepaper — freeFinancial standards and reporting discipline, internal controls, corporate governance, risk management, the equity story and investor relations — and how each maps to a benefits-operations counterpart auditors will examine.
Working-capital efficiency, elimination of cash deposits, and reconciliation-cost reduction — the concrete ways investor-grade benefits administration improves the numbers on your statements.
Why personal liability transforms at listing — fiduciary duties to thousands of shareholders, securities class actions, derivative suits and regulatory investigations that name directors personally — and what the key policy provisions cover.
Why D&O alone is not enough: POSI is a transaction-specific policy for prospectus liability that standard D&O cannot address, with roughly 20% of IPO lawsuits also naming underwriters. Includes the regulatory landscape and coverage benchmarks.
A timeline for IPO-bound companies, plus Onsurity’s operational track record — from a BSE/NSE-listed OTA to a logistics platform covering 100,000+ riders — used as evidence the model works under public-market conditions.
The specific questions to answer, framed as conversations to have with your CFO and auditors, plus appendices: a regulatory reference, a glossary and a document checklist for audit readiness.
Founders, CFOs, company secretaries and boards of companies preparing for an IPO on NSE or BSE — and the HR and benefits leaders who support them. It is written for founders who prioritise substance over checklists.
Every major IPO-readiness requirement has a counterpart in benefits infrastructure: accounting standards govern benefits liabilities, the internal controls auditors test include benefits processes, and governance standards extend to vendor relationships and conflict-of-interest safeguards. Handled well, this becomes a source of strength during listing.
D&O (Directors & Officers) insurance addresses ongoing operational liability for directors and officers. POSI (Public Offering of Securities Insurance) is a separate, transaction-specific, non-renewable policy designed exclusively to cover prospectus liability arising from misstatements or omissions — protection that standard D&O policies cannot adequately provide.
