A Special Purpose Acquisition Company (SPAC) is required to safeguard the overwhelming majority of the money raised through its public subscription. The CISI study material specifies that not less than 90% of public subscription proceeds, or any higher percentage prescribed by the Authority, must be deposited within two business days into an escrow or other suitable segregated account. Money in that account is restricted to defined purposes. These include financing the business combination, meeting recovery requests submitted by investors, returning public subscription proceeds following a failure event, and paying fees associated with maintaining the account or those permitted purposes. The escrow proceeds are therefore not a general pool of working capital available for restructuring, market hedging or issuing additional shares. In the scenario, depositing 95% meets the minimum 90% segregation requirement, but the permitted uses remain restricted. Among the listed alternatives, meeting recovery requests from investors is expressly authorised by the CISI SPAC rules. Consequently, option A is the correct answer.
