Arbitrage requires a certain number of stocks – or any product for that matter – and immediately selling them at a higher price. This is commonly done when there is imperfect information in any specific system and individuals can quickly buy inventories and sell them immediately at a profit. These types of businesses typically operate specifically within the financial services market. Most arbitrage trading firms and businesses typically use substantial amounts of computers as well as automated trading systems in order to turn profits within specific markets. In some cases, there may be crossover exchanges that are used so that security is not listed on one exchange can be immediately sold a profit on another. Many arbitrage trading businesses operate similar to hedge funds in that they source private capital with the intent to use it for trading activities.

 The typical startup cost for a new arbitrage trading firm typically run anywhere from $1 million all the way up to $100 million depending on how much money is going to be reused to launch this type of operation. As it relates the direct startup costs – including professional fees, filings, and capital raising – these usually run about $100,000 to $200,000. Most arbitrage traders, when using private investment capital, receive a fee equal to 20% of all aggregate profits generated in the course of a calendar year.

It should be noted that a qualified securities attorney should be retained in order to advise the arbitrage trading firm as to what investors may place money with the business.

Foremost, many of these businesses do maintain an online presence that provides a moderate amount of information. These websites typically have an online portal where current clients as well as prospective clients can review information that cannot be disseminated directly to the general public. This website can be listed among all major search engines and a modest amount of search engine optimization can be done in order to create a visibility for the investment firm’s brand name. Most investment firms do not invest heavily on their website given the fact that they cater to a very small group of high net worth individuals as well as other financial institutions.
