The National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) has launched the Financial Trader Health and Safety Initiative in order to address potential behavioral risks associated with emerging financial trading platforms and prediction markets.

A donation of $2 million from Kalshi allows NCPG to build national capacity for this initiative in three key areas: building national infrastructure; expanding public awareness and access to support; and advancing research, education and collaboration.

Building National Infrastructure

NCPG will invest in educational resources, industry engagement, dedicated staff, and best-practice development to help ensure that responsible participation and consumer protection efforts evolve in response to emerging financial trading platforms.

This work will also include evaluating NCPG’s existing Internet Compliance Assessment Program (iCAP) for adaptation across the financial services and trading sector. As the nation’s first independent responsible gambling accreditation program for online gambling operators and suppliers, iCAP offers valuable guidance that can inform future responsible participation and consumer protection standards.

Expanding Public Awareness and Access to Support

A significant portion of the initiative will support public education efforts focused on trading-related behavioral risks, screening tools, responsible participation, and increased awareness of available support services, including the National Problem Gambling Helpline.

Advancing Research, Education, and Collaboration

The initiative will support training programs, stakeholder convenings, industry partnerships, and a national summit focused on financial trader health, consumer protections, and emerging financial markets.
