Kalshi and S&P Dow Jones Indices agree to expand financial event contracts

According to Cointelegraph, Kalshi has reached a deal with S&P Dow Jones Indices to add the company’s gauges to a growing list of Wall Street firms expanding their involvement in prediction markets. The agreement enables Kalshi to offer financial event contracts tied to S&P Dow Jones indices.

Under the terms, S&P Dow Jones Indices will work with Kalshi to create and manage specific financial event contracts that reflect movements in its benchmark indices. These contracts are designed to allow market participants to place bets or wagers on defined outcomes related to index levels at set times.

Kalshi previously offered prediction markets for financial events such as economic data releases and index performance milestones. This partnership marks an extension of that model with a major U.S. index provider, increasing the range of benchmark-linked events available through Kalshi’s platform.

The development continues a trend in which asset issuers and index providers explore prediction markets as tools for price discovery, liquidity provision, and real-time market feedback. S&P Dow Jones Indices confirmed participation in the expanded offering without commenting on scale or frequency of contracts.
