Regulatory Arbitrage Reduction

Definition

Regulatory Arbitrage Reduction involves actions taken by regulators to minimize opportunities for entities to exploit differences in legal frameworks across jurisdictions to gain an unfair advantage or avoid compliance. This involves harmonizing rules, increasing international cooperation, and closing loopholes that allow businesses to operate under less stringent oversight. The goal is to create a more level playing field and prevent risks from accumulating in less regulated areas. Such efforts promote financial stability and fairness.
