Welcome Reception

Special Purpose Acquisition Corporations (SPACs) have exploded in recent years, far overtaking traditional IPOs as a means of going public. The pace of so-called de-SPAC transactions has also accelerated, as has the pace of lawsuits asserting securities fraud in connection with either the SPAC formation, the de-SPAC transaction, or sometimes even both.

The panel will focus on SPAC litigation trends and highlight the following topics:

• SEC commentary and enforcement activity
• The applicability (or not) of the PSLRA statutory safe-harbor to the de-SPAC
• Current state of case law
• Best practices to reduce litigation exposures
