Anthropic plans to raise up to $3.5 billion from Japanese investors in its US IPO
English text is being prepared.
Anthropic plans to raise up to $3.5 billion from Japanese investors in its US IPO, with Mizuho Securities responsible for the Japanese portion of the offering, and institutions such as Goldman Sachs and Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley handling investor orders. Japan's IPO market has dried up to a 14-year low, and investors in Australia, Canada and parts of Europe can also subscribe. Anthropic filed for its IPO in October 2026, and this offering will test investors' appetite for AI-related new stocks.

Anthropic计划在其美国首次公开募股(IPO)中向日本投资者募集至多35亿美元,把这场具有里程碑意义的股票发行,带给长期苦于无新股可打的日本市场。
监管备案文件显示,瑞穗证券(Mizuho Securities)将负责本次发行的日本部分,高盛集团、三菱日联摩根士丹利证券、摩根士丹利三菱日联证券等机构将处理投资者订单。瑞穗金融集团和三菱日联金融集团位列此次发行的承销商之中。
这使得首次公开发行已枯竭至14年来低点的日本,成为少数几个投资者可直接参与这场超大型IPO的市场之一。除日本外,澳大利亚、加拿大以及欧洲部分地区的投资者也将能够认购这家Claude聊天机器人开发商的首次公开发行的股份。
在企业竞相登陆资本市场的浪潮中,Anthropic已于2026年10月提交了外界期待已久的IPO申请。随着Meta Platforms寻求通过发售普通股和优先股募集至多950亿美元、Alphabet计划进行至多850亿美元的股权融资,Anthropic的IPO将检验投资者对一波AI相关新股的胃口。(校对/赵月)
