Cantor & Co. is seeking to help institutional clients move into the prediction-markets space, Brandon Lutnick said. The push follows Cantor's recent partnership with Kalshi, the regulated prediction-market exchange. The move targets growing institutional interest in event contracts as the sector expands beyond retail traders.

Cantor's institutional distribution and Kalshi's CFTC-regulated venue could accelerate mainstream adoption of event contracts among hedge funds and asset managers.
