Every engagement above was read from the prospectus cited in the Source column — nothing is inferred from a press release or a vendor league table. A SPAC missing from this list means no parsed filing names Kirkland & Ellis LLP, not that the firm was not involved. IPO size is Spac.ipoSizeM as filed; blanks stay blank rather than being estimated.
