In 1999, Peterffy was influential in persuading the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that U.S. options markets could be linked electronically, which would ensure that investors receive the best possible options prices.[15] He has also testified before the United States Senate Banking Subcommittee on Securities, Insurance, and Investment about adding banking regulations.[6]

During the 2012 United States presidential campaign, Peterffy created political ads supporting the Republican Party.[16] Peterffy bought millions of dollars of air time on networks such as CNN, CNBC, and Bloomberg. The ads consisted of a minute-long spot narrated by Peterffy, warning against creeping socialism in the United States. The ads were out of the ordinary, because Peterffy was not a candidate and did not buy the ads through a 527 group, but instead paid for them directly.[17]

In the spot, Peterffy said, "America's wealth comes from the efforts of people striving for success. Take away their incentive with badmouthing success and you take away the wealth that helps us take care of the needy. Yes, in socialism the rich will be poorer, but the poor will also be poorer. People will lose interest in really working hard and creating jobs."[18]

Peterffy's ad received mixed responses. Joshua Green, writing for Bloomberg Businessweek, said "The ad, while slightly ridiculous, is deeply sincere and also quite affecting." Green also asked Peterffy whether the comparison between the United States and Hungary made in the ad was a fair one: "[Peterffy] couldn't really think that the U.S. was turning into socialist Hungary, could he? The government isn't suppressing speech and throwing political opponents in jail. No, he conceded, it wasn't. But it sure feels like that's the path we're on."[19] Politico said that it could have been influential in Ohio due to its large Hungarian American population.[20]

Voter registration records in Connecticut show that Peterffy has been registered as an independent voter.[17] He donated over $60,000 to the Republican National Committee in 2011 and $100,000 to a pro-Donald Trump political group during the 2016 United States presidential election.[21][22]

Views on Donald Trump and the Republican Party
Discussing the 2016 election in 2021, he said "I am actually not a Trump fan at all. I hope he won't run again."[23] Peterffy also then said that the Republican Party is "completely adrift".[23] Peterffy says he did not vote for Trump in the 2016 Republican Party presidential primaries, but supported Trump's bid for the presidency after Trump became the Republican nominee due to Trump's opposition to socialism and collectivism. Peterffy lives near Mar-a-Lago, Trump's Florida estate, and is a member of the Mar-a-Lago Club.[23]

Peterffy contributed $250,000 to Donald Trump's 2020 presidential campaign.[24]

As of late 2023, Peterffy like other prominent and wealthy people in finance, has distanced himself from Trump saying in December 2023 that, “the street still hopes for somebody else", and expressed hope for a brokered convention.[25] Peterffy said that he will not donate to support Trump's campaign.[26]

In November of 2022 Peterffy said that Trump, "can't get elected" and that, even if as a citizen he would vote for him as the GOP nominee, that he, "will do whatever I can to make sure he is not."[27]
