Kalshi has added Comply as a second major enterprise compliance integration, giving firms another way to monitor employees’ trading in prediction market contracts alongside securities and digital-asset activity.
Comply, which works with more than 5,000 primarily financial firms, is adding Kalshi trade data to its regulatory software, according to the official announcement.
The integration will allow compliance teams to view employees’ activity in event contracts and check it against internal policies, including restrictions linked to material non-public information.
Event Contracts Enter Compliance Workflows
Comply said its new prediction monitoring solution will support real-time ingestion and monitoring of contract trading activity alongside traditional securities and digital assets. It also said the system can help firms identify undisclosed trades and assess whether employees with material non-public information are violating internal policies.
CNBC reported that the coverage will also extend to Kalshi’s perpetual futures contracts. For firms already using Comply to monitor other employee trading activity, the Kalshi integration places prediction-market activity inside existing workflows rather than requiring a separate process.
The agreement follows Kalshi’s June partnership with StarCompliance, which also gave financial firms a way to monitor employee trading on Kalshi. The Comply deal expands that effort by adding another established compliance platform rather than replacing the earlier integration.
The integration also fits a wider pattern inside compliance software. Comply already supports prediction-market monitoring for Polymarket through an integration with ZenLedger, a cryptocurrency tax and accounting provider.
Firms Weigh Monitoring against Bans
Many companies are still developing internal policies for employee trading in prediction markets, while legal experts cited by the network said few firms outside highly regulated financial institutions have adapted their compliance frameworks to cover the asset class.
That creates a practical issue for compliance teams. Without visibility into employee accounts, some companies may choose to prohibit staff from trading event contracts altogether.
Sudhir Jain, Kalshi’s Chief Compliance Officer, told CNBC that firms without data may have little choice from a policy perspective other than to ban trading, while monitoring tools give them a way to supervise activity.

Max Crowley, Kalshi’s Vice President of Business Development, said firms considering participation in prediction markets have asked whether they can obtain compliance surveillance on their side. He said Kalshi has its own internal surveillance team, but firms also want visibility into employee activity through their own systems.
For compliance teams, the result is another route to bring event-contract activity into the same employee-monitoring systems used for other restricted trading.
