Kalshi Partners With Comply to Add Trade Surveillance for 5,000 Firms

3 articles · Updated · CNBC · Aug 4

Summary

  • Comply will add Kalshi event-contract and perpetual futures trade data to its regulatory software, giving client firms visibility into employee activity as Kalshi courts institutional traders.
  • 5,000 mostly financial firms already use Comply’s tools for securities and digital assets, and Kalshi said institutions expect the same compliance surveillance before entering prediction markets.
  • Kalshi executives said the setup can help companies monitor for policy breaches and material non-public information, reducing pressure to ban employee trading in event contracts outright.
  • The deal follows Kalshi’s June partnership with StarCompliance and comes as companies across sectors still struggle to adapt internal policies to the fast-growing prediction-market asset class.
