Roundhill Investments Seeks SEC Approval for Election Outcome ETFs

Roundhill Investments has submitted a request to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to introduce six exchange-traded funds (ETFs) designed to allow investors to speculate on the outcomes of U.S. elections. Bloomberg posted on X, highlighting this as a significant move to integrate prediction markets into conventional finance. If approved, these ETFs would enable investors to engage in election-related bets through standard brokerage accounts, marking a novel approach in the financial sector. This initiative represents the most ambitious effort to date in bringing prediction markets into the mainstream financial landscape.
