In October 2016 Winton – a quantitative investment management firm – hosted an interdisciplinary workshop to explore the idea of establishing a non-commercial Climate Prediction Market where participants can bet on the value of climate variables up to several decades in the future.
This lecture will describe the issues discussed at the workshop and outline a blueprint for the creation of a climate prediction market in the U.K.
