In an article titled “SPAC Rules Could Reassure D&O Insurers, Dampen Investor Enthusiasm for Vehicles,” Business Insurance turned to business litigation partner Henry Van Dyck for insight on proposed U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) disclosure rules for special purpose acquisition companies (SPAC) and the potential effect on SPAC-related transactions.
