Today, carbon credits are traded via the compliance carbon market or the voluntary carbon market, collectively referred to as the carbon markets. Carbon credits are traded on specialized exchanges, such as the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) or the European Climate Exchange (ECX). Transactions can also be conducted over-the-counter (OTC) between buyers and sellers directly or through brokers or intermediaries.
Prior to the development of platforms like AVID, trading in carbon markets has been limited to accredited investors and companies, and has been 100% unavailable to self-traders.
