US initial public offerings are poised to rebound this year, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. strategists said, citing tailwinds including a solid economic backdrop, rising boardroom confidence and supportive monetary policy.

Proceeds are set to reach $160 billion in 2026, the team led by Ben Snider wrote in a note. That would be more than three times the roughly $48 billion raised by companies last year, excluding SPACs and other funds, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
