The SPAC raised $83 billion in 2020, and continued to soar in 2021, reaching $100 billion in the first three months of this year.

Goldman Sachs has said in a research note that the current low interest rate environment is fueling the SPAC boom. Interest rates near zero make the SPAC a low opportunity cost for investors. SPAC promoters can earn a minimum return on their initial investment while they are looking for companies to buy, and can choose to redeem their shares if they do not like the potential acquirer.

In addition, companies listing through SPAC can have direct, confidential and rapid negotiations with SPAC without a large-scale road show, which is in line with the quarantine requirement of “reducing exposure.”

Retail investors’ appetite for non-traditional businesses could also be a driver of SPAC’s boom. Goldman argues that new tracks with high growth potential are emerging, with small and mid-sized companies constrained by their size and less likely to trade publicly. And the public’s enthusiasm for investment has encouraged these smes to access secondary market financing through SPAC’s fast-track listing.
