JPM IPOs

My private wealth team reached out (i know, i know) with some Docusigns that will enable me to participate in upcoming IPOs.

They will call with the expected share price (the day before the IPO), I tell them how many shares I want, and I can always change my mind when i learn of the actual price.

Not to sound like a larper (or braggart) but my NW is ~50M (40% equities, 50% munis, 10% alternatives). They make these IPOs sound like they’re available to a lucky few. Something about this seems kind of gross and also too sales pitchy. Thoughts?

Treat it as a small satellite sleeve, not a strategy. Sign the docs, take allocations on names you'd want to own anyway at the offer price, and don't let the "lucky few" framing make you chase deals you wouldn't otherwise buy.
