Resumo: SPACs are one of the most discussed investment opportunities of the last years. In the mean time, a lot has changed: Media coverage, public interest, regulation, and their reputation. In this Master Thesis the performance of the latest SPAC generation is analysed at the three most important stages: IPO, merger announcement and the short-term after announcement window. The results get compared with the literature in IPOs, M&A and private equity as well as current research about previous SPAC generations. The results show: Pre-merger and merger performance is positive while post-merger performance is better than expected
