Morningstar Opts for Auction-Style IPO


Morningstar is opting to forgo selling its stock the traditional way. The fund rater is now planning an auction-style IPO, officials stated in a release.

"It is in keeping with our company philosophy of helping all investors—not just large ones," said Joe Mansueto, chairman and chief executive officer.

Lead underwriter Morgan Stanley has been swapped for WR Hambrecht + Co, officials said.
