SPAC structures can provide unique opportunities to bring together many pieces to a new puzzle, which is very much the case with this week’s deal.

This week, we speak with John Schaible, Chairman and CEO of Quantum Fintech Acquisition Corporation (NYSE: QFTA), and Craig Ridenhour, Chief Business Development Officer at AtlasClear.

John and Craig explain how they have crafted a three-way merger to give AtlasClear a unique set of competencies combining trading, clearing, settling and banking with financial products that are generally unavailable to its middle market clients.

They discuss why this market is underserved and what barriers to entry they would be able to surmount by putting this together as a SPAC combination.

Give it a listen.
