The Arbitrage Principle
Country borders:

• Limit trade in goods and services
• Create persistent differences in technology and information
• Preserve economic differences -- prices and wages
• Arbitrage reduces economic differences
• Innovative transactions find arbitrage opportunities
Country borders provide opportunities and competitive advantage to international business

• Globalization challenges business strategy in a fundamental way
• Trade costs are high resulting in economic differences between countries
• The global mosaic offers opportunities for generating gains from trade
• The successful global business develops innovative international transactions to gain global competitive advantage
