Understanding the Formation and Investment Behind Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs)
This episode explores who builds and invests in Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs). The discussion reveals that sponsors, typically professional investors, industry executives, and occasionally private equity firms, fund the initial capital and acquire founders shares.
The money raised from investors like hedge funds, institutional investors, family offices, and high net worth individuals goes into a trust fund, which is then used to acquire a target.
