In March 2024, the U.S. SEC adopted new SPAC rules, adding more investor-protection and liability checks, which can slow launches and raise legal and audit costs. That makes it harder for new sponsors to enter and compete.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-green-section\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"product-box-green-section4\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"title-row-green-section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eReputation and network advantages matter\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"content-row-green-section blur_box\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReputation and network access raise the bar for new entrants in the SPAC market.
