Robinhood Derivatives, LLC (RHD) has launched a prediction markets hub inside the Robinhood App, where customers can trade on the outcomes of important global events.

Robinhood, the mass market trading app, rolled out a prediction markets hub within its app Monday, offering contracts on events ranging from financial policy outcomes to sports results. Why it matters: Prediction markets are very much a live legal and regulatory issue in the U.

While the hub will live in the Robinhood app, the “contracts” are being made available by Kalshi, which is technically a federally regulated exchange under the Commodity Futures Trading Commission—but has also drawn ire from that very same agency for allowing people to bet on the outcome of elections.
