Robinhood Financial fined $65 million by SEC for misleading users

Robinhood Financial fined $65 million by SEC for misleading users By Khristopher J. Brooks Updated on: December 17, 2020 / 2:32 PM / MoneyWatch Robinhood Financial has been fined $65 million for misleading its stock market customers about how the company makes its revenue from their trades, the Securities and Exchange Commission said Thursday. The SEC fine comes one day after regulators in Massachusetts filed a lawsuit against Robinhood for allegedly targeting young, inexperienced investors with flashy gimmicks on its app that treat stock investing like a game.  Federal officials said that between 2015 and 2018 the company only partially explained on its online FAQ page how it makes money, omitting details about its largest revenue source trades. Robinhood takes a user s stock order and sells it to a larger trading firm that executes the trade, a process known as payment for order flow, the SEC order states.

SEC charges Robinhood over order flow rates

James Langton The company behind popular U.S. trading app Robinhood is paying US$65 million to settle allegations that its “commission free” trading actually cost investors millions in poor trade executions. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) charged Robinhood Financial LLC with violating securities rules by repeatedly failing to disclose that it receives payments for order flow, and for failing to meet its best execution obligations. According to the SEC’s order, the firm was able to offer commission-free trading to clients “due in large part to its unusually high payment for order flow rates,” which resulted in orders being executed at inferior prices.
