FalconX Expands Prediction Markets Offering Through Kalshi Partnership

FalconX has announced a partnership with Kalshi to expand institutional access to prediction markets through structured derivatives and block trade execution services.

The collaboration will allow institutional clients to access event-driven markets using FalconX’s prime brokerage and derivatives infrastructure alongside Kalshi’s regulated exchange platform. The firms said the partnership is here to support trading and hedging strategies tied to major real-world events, including political elections, macroeconomic data releases, crypto-related developments, and broader market movements.

Also, Prediction markets have attracted growing attention in recent months as traders increasingly use event-based contracts to speculate on or hedge against specific outcomes. These markets allow participants to take positions on future events ranging from election results to inflation trends and financial market direction.

Moreover, FalconX said the partnership reflects a wider shift in financial markets, where institutional investors are looking for new ways to manage event-driven risks through regulated and liquid trading venues.

Josh Barkhordar, Head of Sales at FalconX, commented on the development and said prediction markets are changing how risk is and traded across financial markets.

“Prediction markets are transforming how risk is priced and traded, turning real-world events into investable opportunities. We see this as a natural evolution of financial markets, where institutional capital, derivatives infrastructure, and new asset classes converge. Our role is to bring the scale, liquidity, and risk management frameworks institutions expect into this emerging category,” Barkhordar said.

Kalshi also pointed to increasing institutional demand for event-based contracts as the adoption of prediction markets continues to expand.

Max Crowley, Vice President of Business Development at Kalshi, said institutions have long needed tools to hedge event-specific risks and that broader access through prime brokerages could help increase participation in the sector.

The announcement also aligns with FalconX’s broader strategy of connecting traditional finance infrastructure with digital asset markets while expanding institutional access to emerging trading products and alternative asset classes.
