Tikehau Capital said in a statement on Monday that potential targets include asset management platforms, fintech businesses, insurance services and diversified financial services businesses. The focus will be on ‘scalable platforms that offer strong profit growth potential’, he added, indicating that this will be the first of several SPACs he plans.
Tikehau Capital did not provide details on the amount its SPAC wants to raise, saying only that the four sponsors plan to invest at least 10% of the amount. Arnault has a net worth of $ 114 billion, making it the fourth richest person in the world and the richest individual in Europe, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
The SPAC will present in Amsterdam, the latest in a series of victories for the Dutch city’s fair. Euronext Amsterdam is one of the biggest beneficiaries of changes, which means that EU financial institutions will not be able to trade European shares on the British stock exchange after Brexit.
