Polymarket Seeks Chief Risk Officer to Expand Regulated U.S. Presence—CFTC Calls the Shots

Polymarket is getting serious about compliance. The prediction market platform is now looking for a Chief Risk Officer to oversee its U.S. operations—a direct request from the CFTC. But the split is clear: banned contracts in the U.S., like those tied to international conflicts, still trade on Polymarket's international side. The CRO search follows a legal hiring spree in recent months, with talent pulled from Sullivan & Cromwell, RBC Capital, Proskauer Rose, and more. Regulatory fences are going up.
