CFTC Signs Memorandum With NHL to Police Prediction Markets on Thursday

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission signed a memorandum of understanding with the National Hockey League on Thursday, announced by CFTC Chair Michael Selig, to establish formal coordination on event contracts tied to professional hockey. The agreement aims to protect the sport and related prediction markets from insider trading, fraud, and manipulation, creating a shared information channel between the regulator and the league. The move follows a similar March arrangement with Major League Baseball and comes as platforms including Polymarket and Kalshi have already listed contracts on Stanley Cup playoffs outcomes.
