In brief
Kalshi will require users to disclose their employers before trading certain high-risk markets, part of a broader "market integrity" package effective immediately, the company said.
The exchange confirmed it opened more than 150 investigations this year, blocked over 100 potential insider trades, and referred more than 20 cases to law enforcement.
The moves follow a string of insider trading cases, congressional probes, and criminal charges that have engulfed the prediction market sector.
Prediction market operator Kalshi is rolling out new compliance measures aimed at addressing mounting concerns over insider trading, the exchange said Tuesday, the latest defense in a sector battling mounting insider trading concerns.The new requirement applies to markets deemed at higher risk for insider trading or market manipulation, Kalshi said in a blog post.
