CFTC sues Utah to block state enforcement against prediction markets

The CFTC has gone to court against Utah over the state's attempt to shut down CFTC-registered prediction markets. The dispute turns on federal preemption and the Commission's claim to exclusive jurisdiction over event contracts. This item matters to any venue listing event contracts and to firms tracking where the state-federal line on prediction markets is being drawn.

  • The CFTC filed a lawsuit against Utah to stop the state using its own laws to shut down CFTC-registered contract markets.
  • The suit follows Utah's civil enforcement actions in state court against CFTC-regulated markets and other businesses.
  • The Commission asserts exclusive federal jurisdiction over commodity derivatives and prediction markets under congressional preemption.
  • The CFTC says it has initiated legal proceedings against nine other states and filed briefs in four federal courts of appeal and one state supreme court.

CFTC staff extend Brexit-related no-action relief for UK derivatives entities

The CFTC's Market Participants Division and Division of Market Oversight have extended temporary no-action positions tied to Brexit, first put in place to preserve continuity in UK-US derivatives trading and clearing. This item covers what changed, which prior letters it builds on, and why the relief remains in force.

  • CFTC Staff Letter No. 26-28, issued October 1, 2026, extends Brexit-related no-action positions announced in Letter No. 24-11 as amended by Letter No. 26-10.
  • The relief traces to a February 25, 2019 joint statement by the CFTC, the Bank of England, the Prudential Regulation Authority and the Financial Conduct Authority (CFTC Press Release No. 7876-19).
  • The positions aim to maintain the regulatory certainty established when the CFTC originally issued EU comparability determinations and exemptive orders for certain EU entities.
  • MPD and DMO say the extension remains appropriate while the CFTC works with UK authorities to analyze UK law and, where appropriate, issue UK comparability determinations and exemptive orders for certain UK entities.

CFTC proposes to define event contracts including sports and politics as swaps

The CFTC has opened a short comment window on a proposal to write event contracts into the definition of swap under the Commodity Exchange Act. The move stakes out exclusive federal jurisdiction over contracts based on sports, politics, cultural and weather events. Anyone offering or trading these products, or watching the jurisdictional line between federal and other oversight, should read how the agency frames them.

  • The NPRM proposes to expressly define "swap" to include event contracts based on sports, politics, cultural and weather-related events.
  • The CFTC states these contracts are commodity derivatives within its exclusive jurisdiction under the Commodity Exchange Act.
  • Written comments must be received via Regulations.gov within 30 days of the NPRM's publication in the Federal Register.
  • Chairman Michael S. Selig said Americans use event contracts to hedge risks, speculate and provide information about future outcomes.
