Leaders of major exchanges in Chicago, USA, are calling for a review of the “Self-certification” process. This process allows prediction market platforms to list financial contracts without explicit approval from regulatory authorities, enabling rapid expansion. Terry Duffy, CEO of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), stated at the Futures Industry Association (FIA) annual meeting in Boca Raton, Florida, that the process has been “abused,” allowing markets that are susceptible to manipulation and insider trading to exist. Craig Donohue, CEO of the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), said that recent disputes over contract settlement indicate that relevant rules need to be “reassessed.” (Bloomberg)
