contents Securities issuance through intermediaries is subject to agency problems and informational frictions. We examine these effects using SPAC data. We identify ``premium'' investors whose participation is linked to lower liquidation risk, higher returns, and lower redemption rates, consistent with both informational rents and agency frictions. In contrast, ``non-premium'' investors engage in non-agency quid pro quo relationships. Specifically, they receive high returns from an intermediary (quid) in exchange for a tacit agreement to participate in weaker future deals (quo). These relationships serve as insurance for issuers and intermediaries, enabling more issuers to access markets.
