Far Point Acquisition Corp

Far Point Acquisition Corp (NYSE: FPAC) was a blank-check company that completed its initial public offering in 2018, targeting opportunities in the financial technology and financial services sector. The SPAC was sponsored by a partnership between Third Point LLC, the hedge fund founded by Daniel Loeb, and Hudson Executive Capital, led by Douglas Braunstein, bringing together significant capital-markets and activist-investing expertise as the vehicle's strategic backing. Far Point filed its S-1/A amendment with the SEC on June 6, 2018, and subsequently agreed to merge with Global Blue Group, a Switzerland-based retail tax-refund and currency-conversion services provider. The merger closed in 2020, taking Global Blue public on the New York Stock Exchange.
