Gotcha risk — resolution-rule assessment

Show full assessmentShow less

The market resolves based on which candidate becomes the next mayor of Toronto resulting from the October 2026 election, explicitly excluding any interim or temporary appointments made prior to the vote. Resolution relies primarily on deciders judging a consensus of credible media reporting, backed by official city election information if ambiguity arises. A substantial buffer extending to June 30, 2027 provides ample time for recounts or delayed certifications before an unresolved outcome triggers resolution to an alternative option.
