I also recommend Robinhood's full 123-page Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent. Very readable, and it's quite the catalogue of, at absolute best, less than competent behaviour. https://www.finra.org/sites/default/files/2021-06/robinhood-financial-awc-063021.pdf https://www.finra.org/sites/default/files/2021-06/robinhood-...
- lanbanger 5y agoThis is extremely good content, thanks for the link. Just the first few pages are enough to convince me that Robinhood is a very poorly run organisation. As a financial technologist with a couple of decades' experience, basic things such as only having a 'physical inaccessibility' BCP plan is appalling. I wouldn't touch this company with a penny of my money, whether as a customer or an investor.
- PascLeRasc 5y agoUnfortunately thanks to the S&P 500, we’ll have no choice but to invest in them and support running a business poorly.
- hckrnrd 5y agoHOOD won’t be part of the S&P 500 index. Not sure what you mean?
- chiph 5y ago> Robinhood’s BCP [Business Continuity Plan] was limited to events that physically prevented employees from working from the firm’s premises. As such, the firm did not consider applying its BCP to technology-related business disruptions, including the March 2-3 outage, which Robinhood considered an “existential” threat to its business They're a FinTech firm and they didn't plan for technology outages but did for stuff like weather events? That's just crazy and noob-level planning.
