Arbitrage by Fouad Sabry

What is Arbitrage

In the fields of economics and finance, arbitrage refers to the technique of taking advantage of a discrepancy in pricing in two or more markets by striking a combination of matching agreements in order to capitalize on the difference. The profit results from the difference between the market prices at which the unit is traded. A transaction is considered to be an arbitrage when it is employed by academics. An arbitrage is a transaction that does not include a negative cash flow at any probabilistic or temporal state and a positive cash flow in at least one state. To put it another way, it is the potential of a risk-free profit after consideration of transaction costs. When there is the prospect of quickly purchasing something at a low price and then selling it at a higher price, for instance, this is an example of an arbitrage opportunity.
