Del Canto Chambers provides dual-qualified, multi-lingual tax lawyers, who have worked on over 500 cases throughout Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and Asia, making us the counsel of choice for London-based and international clients, corporations, solicitors and tax advisers.
Our comprehensive Due Diligence report meets ISO9001 standards and includes Corporate & Governance, Sarbanes-Oxley and Financial regulations, Financials and Tax compliance, Intellectual Property, Data Protection and Privacy Laws, IT, Employment, Property, Pending Litigation, tax and regulatory inspections, Insurance, Government regulations and all other regulatory matters as related to the deal.
In addition to the due diligence we offer advice on the transactional aspects including the M&A implications in Spain and the EU, the use of a Luxembourg company, International Tax and Legal implications for the transaction and the shareholders, and all necessary tax & legal advice working with preferred US counsel and acting as a trusted advisor throughout the SPAC life cycle.
Most SPACs are registered in common law jurisdictions and continental law, as well as tax, governance and other compliance and regulatory considerations must be taken into account when structuring the transaction in Spain.
Our bilingual dual-qualified lawyers advise international clients on cross-border SPAC matters, as well as company formation, Joint Ventures and M&A in the Spanish territory. In matters of tax, compliance, governance, due diligence, and intellectual property, as they apply to the entire SPAC process, including De-SPAC, few firms can match our sheer intelligence and knowledge.
Although they have existed for decades, SPACs popularity rose rapidly in 2019/20. They are shell companies that exist to raise capital through an IPO to fund an M&A. Also known as ‘blank cheque companies’, SPACs are usually formed by investors with a particular knowledge of an industry who pursue deals in that sector. These investors may have a merger target in mind when forming the SPAC, but this will be kept under wraps to evade disclosures during the IPO process.
The capital raised in an IPO remains in interest-bearing trust accounts and can only be released for the purposes of completing an M&A. Should the deal fall through, the funds are returned to the investors and the SPAC is liquidated.
Once the M&A is properly established, and the De-SPAC completed, the SPAC takes on the business and identity of the company it acquires.
Once instructed, our SPAC team will take the time to understand your ultimate commercial goals and requirements and will liaise with your counsel. We are committed to achieving results and will provide advice concerning:
Our team understands the complexities of international tax, commercial, and regulatory law, and will meticulously examine every detail of the SPAC formation and the M&A transaction. You can be confident that by instructing us, you will have access to expert legal knowledge on all matters concerning SPACs. We are driven to obtain success and will leave no stone unturned to ensure you and other stakeholders achieve the desired outcome.
