SPVs & AI companies

2024-06-02 17:57:06.090489+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Good explainer on the AI pump-n-dump: VCs are selling shares of hot AI companies like Anthropic and xAI to small investors in a wild SPV market

What’s more, some SPVs are formed on top of another SPV. For instance, when Menlo Ventures was raising a $750 million SPV to invest in Anthropic earlier this year, some funds who invested in it, resold a slice of their SPV allocation to other investors, charging additional fees on their second-layer SPV, Sawyer said.
