CME Group, the world's leading derivatives marketplace, and FanDuel, America's premier online gaming company, part of Flutter Entertainment, on Wednesday announced a groundbreaking alliance that will launch new products and expand access to financial markets for millions of FanDuel customers in the U.S.
This innovative partnership will build on CME Group’s long track record of developing regulated, transparent markets, and FanDuel’s vast customer reach. Together, the companies will develop new fully funded, event-based contracts with defined risk. Customers will be able to express their views multiple times a day on a wide range of markets with simple “yes” or “no” positions for as little as $1.
Expected to launch later this year, the products will include benchmarks such as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100, prices of oil and gas, gold, cryptocurrencies, and key economic indicators such as GDP and CPI, with further details of additional offerings to be determined in the coming months.
“Individual investors are increasingly sophisticated and continually pursuing new financial opportunities,” said Terry Duffy, CME Group Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “To meet this demand, we have created this innovative partnership, which will operate a non-clearing FCM. Together, our event-based products will appeal to the growing public interest in markets, and we will provide education to attract a new generation of potential traders not active in derivatives today.”
“Partnering with CME Group will unlock our ability to bring even more new and engaging products to FanDuel’s fast-growing customer base,” said Amy Howe, CEO of FanDuel Group. "We believe there is potentially a wide audience for trading event-based markets and we want to provide a platform that allows our customers to engage in this activity. We are excited to be partnering with CME Group to design new and engaging products, combining innovation with best-in-class regulatory compliance and consumer protections.”
As part of the partnership, CME Group and FanDuel will form a new joint venture, under which they will operate a non-clearing futures commission merchant (FCM) that will facilitate access to these event-based contracts through FanDuel.
Pending CFTC regulatory review, event contracts will be listed on and subject to the rules of CME Group exchanges and available through all participating FCMs.
