ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book investigates innovative perspectives on arbitrage as a part of corporate strategy where the scope for arbitrage is the dissimilarities that exist between Russian regions. It reveals that distance between two regions that have different cultural, economic or administrative dimensions is a significant factor in business. The book attempts to investigate price asymmetries and opportunities for arbitrage as well as the causes of price asymmetries and how purposeful human activity creates opportunities for arbitrage. It shows that in Russia there is inadequate valuation of state assets such as land, properties and business. The book investigates diverse methods of personnel outsourcing that provide Russian companies with opportunities to optimize their business. It examines a mechanism of transfer pricing which operates as an instrument for the distribution of costs and profits between different corporate units.
