WASHINGTON, June 10 ― US officials are examining ways to update trading rules, including how assets are priced, to ensure they keep up with current technology, a top securities regulator said yesterday.

He made the comments during the Piper Sandler Global Exchange and Fintech Conference, which was closed to the public. Robinhood has been credited with introducing a generation of new individual investors to the stock market, but the platform is also known for features that critics say can make it addictive.

“I think that's a misperception: it's not free trade, somebody is paying for your and my order flows,” Gensler said on CNBC. “Secondly, they're getting our data, the data is very valuable. So it is zero commission, but not necessarily free.” Traditional exchanges handle only about 53 per cent of trading volume, while wholesalers manage over a third, with a single firm claiming to handle half of all retail volume, Gensler said.
