Rothera files first event-contract self-certifications with the CFTC

Rothera, the exchange and clearinghouse in Robinhood's joint venture with Susquehanna, filed self-certifications with the CFTC on May 13, 2026 for three event contracts. Self-certification lets an exchange list a contract without prior CFTC approval, unless the agency objects. The filing is a step toward routing more of Robinhood's prediction-market volume through its own exchange.

  • Contracts: baseball game outcomes, weekly jobless claims and the core PCE price index
  • Planned listing on or after May 20, 2026
  • Rothera operates as a designated contract market and derivatives clearing organization
