WSJ: Cboe targets prediction markets, plans to relaunch "all or nothing" options products.
PANews reported on February 2nd that, according to The Block citing The Wall Street Journal, major derivatives exchange Cboe Global Markets is considering relaunching "all or nothing" binary options contracts for retail investors to directly compete in the rapidly growing market prediction space. The contract will operate as a fixed-income derivative, paying a fixed amount if the underlying asset meets preset conditions at expiration, otherwise it will be worthless.
Cboe previously launched binary options linked to major financial indices in 2008, but it was delisted due to its failure to attract a market dominated by institutions at the time. With this planned relaunch, the exchange stated that it will conduct rigorous legal and compliance reviews before listing the product, and the relevant contracts will be regulated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
