Rush Street says CFTC registration filing is contingency plan
Rush Street Interactive chief executive Richard Schwartz said the company has no current intention to enter sports prediction markets, despite a linked company filing for Designated Contract Market registration with the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Schwartz said the filing, submitted in May, preserves flexibility while Rush Street remains focused on casino operations.
The filing creates a potential route into event contracts, but Rush Street says it has no present plan to pursue that market.
