Joshua Sterling, Litigation & Arbitration partner at Milbank LLP and former Director of the CFTC’s Market Participants Division, will participate on a webinar titled, “Prediction Markets at the Crossroads: Innovation, Regulation, and Market Design,” to be held virtually on Friday, May 29, 2026, from 12:00 – 1:15 pm EDT.
The panel will examine how prediction markets have evolved into platforms for trading on real-world outcomes, addressing the boundaries between state and federal jurisdiction, the intersection of gaming law, and derivatives regulation, market structure, consumer protection, and insider trading. Mr. Sterling will be joined by Dan Berkovitz (Millennium Management; former CFTC Commissioner), Ferdisha Snagg (Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP), and Brian Quintenz (Kalshi; former CFTC Commissioner), with Professor Paolo Saguato of George Mason University Antonin Scalia Law School serving as moderator. The webinar is hosted by the Law & Economics Center at George Mason University Antonin Scalia Law School.
Mr. Sterling is a leading practitioner in commodities and derivatives law, representing financial services, corporate, and fintech clients in high-stakes litigation, investigations, and regulatory matters before the CFTC, the SEC and self-regulatory organizations.
