German tech investment company Rocket Internet plans to list a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) in New York to tap into investor interest in new offerings, two people close to the matter said. Rocket, led by tech entrepreneur Oliver Samwer, is preparing to list SPAC shares worth 200 million to 300 million euros ($242 million to $363 million) in a deal organised by investment bank Citi, they said, speaking on condition of anonymity. SPACs, or blank-cheque firms, typically raise money in an IPO to pursue an acquisition without telling their investors which company they will buy.
