Since our last episode on SPACs, the market has cooled some as prime targets are harder to source and capacity in the insurance market continues to squeeze. With skyrocketing premiums and a quick turnaround in the underwriting process, the market is starting to consider the next natural step in the process – the claims that are likely to flow from some of these deals. Through the insurance lens, the burning question is whether SPAC and deSPAC claims will actually be paid? Policyholders are also wondering whether the claims process will be smooth or complex? Will there be unintended consequences flowing from the speed at which these complicated transactions have proceeded? In today's episode, Lynda Bennett and guests Steve Shappell, Alliant Specialty Claims and Legal Practice Leader, and Ron Borys, Senior Vice President and Financial Institutions Practice Group Leader from Alliant Insurance Services, provide insight on what to except and how to prepare when the claim process begins.
