S&P Dow Jones Indices Partners With Kalshi for Prediction Markets
S&P Dow Jones Indices has partnered with prediction market platform Kalshi to offer event contracts tied to official financial benchmarks.
S&P Dow Jones Indices has partnered with prediction market platform Kalshi in an agreement that will allow the exchange to offer event contracts tied to the financial index provider’s benchmarks, according to an announcement on Monday.
Under the agreement, Kalshi will serve as a preferred platform for contracts linked to S&P DJI indices, with settlement based on official index values published by the company. Additionally, S&P DJI will explore developing new indexes using Kalshi’s prediction market data to track economic developments, political outcomes, and sporting events. These gauges would utilize prices from Kalshi’s event contracts to measure market expectations about future outcomes rather than tracking traditional financial asset performance.

In October 2025, Intercontinental Exchange committed up to $2 billion to Polymarket. Furthermore, Nasdaq filed in March to offer prediction market-style contracts tied to the Nasdaq 100 Index and partnered with Kalshi in August to provide market surveillance technology.
Separately, S&P Global, the parent company of S&P Dow Jones Indices, announced on Monday that it completed its acquisition of blockchain security firm OpenZeppelin to expand its digital asset risk assessment capabilities. Financial terms for the transaction were not disclosed, and OpenZeppelin will operate as its own business unit under founder Demian Brener.
