Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast which takes a deep dive into a compliance related topic, literally going into the weeds to more fully explore a subject. Today, Matt and Tom take a deep dive into several issues regarding Special Purpose Acquisition Companies (SPACs).
Some of the issues we consider are:
- What did the Klausner and Olhrogge Research Paper show about conflicts of interest?
- What did Calcbench analysis show about not only the number of SPAC filings but how they are driving the dramatic increase in M&A activity.
- What are the corporate governance issues involved in with SPACs?
- What are the internal controls issues involved with SPACs?
- What has (or will) the Delaware Supreme Court have to say.
- What have been the pronouncements from the SEC?
