Although SPACs have existed in different forms in the United States for years, new-generation SPACs became popular after the introduction of Rule 419 Blank Check Offering Terms in 2003 (Cumming, Haß, & Schweizer, 2014). Over the period of 2003–2015, 230 SPAC IPOs and 130 SPAC acquisitions are identified in the U.S. capital markets (Kolb & Tykvova, 2016). In the peak year of 2007, 66 SPACs went public and accounted for approximately 22% of all IPOs. Following SPACs’ entrance in the U.S. market, they have risen in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Malaysia, and some countries in Europe. Yet, reverse takeovers via SPACs have not been generally active in those countries. For example, only 19 SPACs attained public listing status over the period of 2005–2011 in all European capital markets (Ignatyeva, Rauch, & Wahrenburg, 2013). Therefore, most of academic studies on SPACs have investigated the U.S. sample. However, the corporate structure and security design of SPACs and regulation may be different across countries, and thus empirical studies based on U.S. SPACs can be limited. Outside the United States, SPACs have been successfully introduced to capital markets in South Korea.

Use the Harvard system of referencing, providing the sources of your information wherever relevant. Thereference list at the end of the essay should include all sources cited within the body of the essay.
You are likely to draw on between 6-8 scholarly references to support your analysis, including the textbook, unit materials and wider research literature related to the original study.

Purpose:
This individual assignment is an opportunity for students to demonstrate their understanding of the unit
concepts from weeks 1 -5 and apply their knowledge of the theories and unit material. Students will need to
research widely, consider the topic from various perspectives and develop an argument based on a thesis
statement, which is supported by credible evidence from relevant case studies and other academic sources.
Background and Context:
Some argue that cultural diversity creates barriers between people due to obvious linguistic, cultural and
religious differences. Others point to renowned global professional services firms, such as the “Big Four”
Accounting partnerships, which actively promotes diversity – in all its forms – in the workplace and offers a
range of services to a variety of clients around the world.
Given that historically, the English language is effectively the “lingua franca” or the language of business in
the advanced economies of the developed world, some argue that cultural differences are irrelevant if
everybody learns English, speaks the same language and becomes “Westernised”.
A good example of this is the city state of Singapore, which famously evolved from “third world to first” in a
generation in the late twentieth century. All Singaporeans learn English as well as a second language based
on their cultural heritage. This bi-lingual requirement is one factor, from among many, which has given
Singapore an undeniable advantage when conducting business, attracting international businesses and
appealing to high-wealth individuals.

. On the one hand, what harms are potentially produced by failing to take action to control climate change? On the other hand, what harms are potentially produced by acting to lower carbon emissions?
2. To what extent do humans have a moral responsibility to future generations that are yet to be born? Explain your reasoning.
3. Arguably, actions to cut carbon emissions and curb global warming right now have real costs for certain segments of the global population while the benefits of such actions are more abstract. How should we balance the tangible costs in the present and abstract consequences in the future when addressing climate change? Explain.
4. If you were in a position to recommend environmental policy changes or actions, what would you advocate and why?
5. Do prosperous countries have a greater responsibility to take action and bear more of the costs of controlling climate change than developing countries? Explain your reasoning.
6. Considering that the negative impacts of climate change will likely fall disproportionally on the poor, yet developing countries must often increase consumption and emissions to achieve greater economic growth, do you think developing nations should be exempt from actions to control climate change? Why or why not?
7. The climate change agreement approved in Paris is based on voluntary goals and pledges by participating countries. Would it be ethically permissible to impose carbon emission goals on countries and individuals and enforce them with penalties? Explain your reasoning.
