| dc.description.abstract | SPACs (Special Purpose Acquisition Companies) have become popular during the last few years, with a large number of SPAC Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) on US stock exchanges in the first three quarters of 2020 which is almost the same number of non-SPAC IPOs on those exchanges in the same time span. There could be many reasons for the recent interest involving SPAC activity and SPACs tend to become more attractive when markets are experiencing a lot of uncertainty in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. Even though it is very early to predict whether current interest in SPACs will continue or not, recent trends seem to suggest that there exists ample space in the market for SPACs as a viable option for taking private companies public. | en_US |
