Listen "How New SEC Rules Could Shape Future Litigation"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of The SPAC Podcast, Nick Morgan, Partner at Paul Hastings LLP and co-founder of ICAN (Investor Choice Advocates Network), explains how the SEC’s new SPAC rules may influence litigation risk for sponsors and targets.Drawing on his experience as an SEC trial counsel, Nick notes that while today’s SEC may be less aggressive than under Chair Gensler, the statute of limitations is long, sometimes six years, ten years, or even unlimited for certain claims.That means SPAC activity happening today could still face scrutiny under a future, more activist SEC administration.Sponsors and targets shouldn’t assume a friendlier environment today eliminates long-term regulatory risk.Connect with the Guest:Nick Morgan – Partner, Paul Hastings LLP | Co-Founder, ICANLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholasrmorgan/View all of their episodes here:https://www.thespacpodcast.com/guests/nick-morgan/Connect with the Hosts & The SPAC Podcast:Michael Blankenship LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikeblankenship/Joshua Wilson LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshuabrucewilson/YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@ThespacpodcastContact The SPAC Podcast:https://www.thespacpodcast.com/contact/#SPACs #CapitalMarkets #SPACPodcast #SEC #LitigationRisk #InvestorProtection #ICAN Disclaimers: The views, opinions, and statements expressed by the guest are solely their own and do not necessarily reflect the views of The SPAC Podcast, its hosts, or affiliated organizations.
