Interactive Brokers, the Nasdaq-listed brokerage firm, is bringing Kalshi, CME Group and ForecastEx prediction markets into one trading interface as event contracts move further into mainstream brokerage accounts.
The company said in a May 14 press release that eligible clients can now search and trade contracts across the three U.S. prediction-market venues from one platform. The system also sits alongside Interactive Brokers' existing markets, including stocks, options, futures, forex, crypto and bonds.
Interactive Brokers said its interface aggregates similar markets, shows liquidity and fees in one place and routes orders to the venue with the best available net price.
The first focus will be election outcomes, climate events and economic indicators, according to the company.

The launch comes as regulated prediction markets are getting more attention from brokers. Reuters reported in January that Interactive Brokers expected U.S. midterm election betting to help drive growth of ForecastEx, its prediction-market platform launched in 2024.
