Kalshi is launching new technological guardrails that preemptively block politicians, athletes, and other relevant people from trading in certain politics and sports markets.

The guardrails we built use state-of-the-art technology and screening lists, but no screening system is perfect, and motivated bad actors consistently try to find a way.

Lee says in that same post that he "got a random cold call from some woman asking about numbers and told her some bs, did not expect an article about it." But that call occurred because Cluely's public relations representative emailed TechCrunch and offered to make Lee available for a story.

Research finds that relying on regulations to determine your policies and procedures can result in ethical blindspots, or situations where people might think if there is not a rule for something, that it's permissible. After years of shifting towards values and culture-based compliance, leadership might be heading the opposite direction.

The Commission has full authority to police illegal trading practices occurring on any DCM, including those described above related to prediction markets. Kalshi used its own announcement to underscore that we ban insider trading and said it had launched about 200 investigations over the past year. More than a dozen of those inquiries led to formal enforcement actions.

The accounting watchdog said that, although there had been no new financial issues, it "disclaimed" the college's latest 2024-25 accounts because of the continuing "fallout" from financial reporting problems that resulted from a problematic IT project. "We were not able to provide a complete opinion on the opening position or in-year transactions for 2024-25, both of which are heavily derived from the closing position of the prior year," it added.

Rather than stolen data making headlines, it was business stoppage that triggered attention. Moving into 2026, the board's focus should be on ensuring business continuity and building resilience in the face of emerging risks generated by AI usage and attack vectors, quantum computing and geopolitics.

If your partner in Munich mishandles customer data, or your reseller in Paris uses a "black box" AI tool to generate deceptive ads, it isn't just their reputation on the line. It's yours. With the EU AI Act now in full swing and GDPR entering its "mature enforcement" era, the distance between a partner's mistake and your company's $20 million fine has never been shorter.

As audit committees confront a rapidly expanding risk landscape, their role in corporate governance is being reshaped. Boards have often turned to current and former CFOs as independent directors, particularly for audit committees, because of their ability to translate complex operational and financial realities into effective oversight.For example, this month, J. Michael Hansen, former EVP and CFO of Cintas Corporation, was appointed to the audit committee at Paychex.

ADM announced on Tuesday that it has entered into a settlement agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to resolve its investigation into ADM's prior reporting of inter-segment sales, without admitting or denying any wrongdoing. As part of the settlement, ADM agreed to pay a $40 million penalty. According to the SEC, ADM engaged in years of profit-shifting that made its star nutrition segment appear to meet ambitious growth targets, even as demand softened and margins declined.

The Department of Defense, which was recently authorized to receive a new annual budget of nearly $840 billion a year and could see a substantial increase to $1.5 trillion under the current Trump administration, has consistently failed to pass an audit since audits became legally required for the military in 2018. Pentagon officials hope the military can get its books in order across the services and pass one by 2028.

To all employees, this company takes data protection very seriously. It has a material impact on our operations. The CIO and IT Director are in charge of those policies. If one of them comes to your business unit and gives you an instruction, take it as seriously as you would instructions from any other C-level, including myself. As of this date, know this: If you disregard or otherwise violate any IT instruction, you better pray that they are wrong.

As we kick off 2026, activist investor campaigns are no longer just prevalent; they are global, sophisticated, and have increasingly become an acute threat to corporate leadership. The escalating pressure is undeniable: Barclays data shows that activist investor campaigns hit a high last year - surpassing 2024 by 5% - with 32 CEOs resigning as a result (a record) - and showing no signs of slowing down.
