Abstract:
A method and system are described for creating an exchange for futures products for odds markets based on binary outcomes. The futures product is based on the value of a particular fixed index or an exchange delivery settlement price in odds form, as recorded or computed at the end of a pre-assigned event or time-horizon. A particular use of this product would be on an exchange for sporting events, where for a given event, an identical interface to that which would currently be available for odds markets is made available, but which would be settled differently from the former, in such a manner as to allow investors to take positions on the movement of the odds without exposure to the final outcome of the event.
