Adversarial Regulatory Arbitrage

What is Adversarial Regulatory Arbitrage?

Adversarial Regulatory Arbitrage is an MCP server that detects multi‑jurisdiction shell layering, traces ultimate beneficial ownership through circular corporate structures, and models regulatory‑strategy dynamics. It orchestrates 17 live data sources and applies 8 analytical tools, including Stackelberg GNEP enforcement games, Tarjan SCC cycle detection, and GAN adversarial co‑evolution. It is built for compliance teams, financial crime investigators, and AI workflows.

How to use Adversarial Regulatory Arbitrage?

Add the server URL and Bearer token to any MCP‑compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline) via JSON configuration. The server uses MCP Streamable HTTP transport and runs on Apify Standby with no cold start. Each tool call costs $0.045 (pay‑per‑event) and returns structured JSON.

FAQ from Adversarial Regulatory Arbitrage

What data sources does the server access?

It accesses 17 live sources, including UK Companies House, US OFAC sanctions, SEC EDGAR, GLEIF LEIs, EU VAT, OpenCorporates, Canada/Australia/NZ registries, OpenSanctions, Interpol, and more.

How much does it cost to use?

Each tool call costs $0.045, with no subscription or monthly minimums. You can set a per‑run budget cap that stops the server cleanly when reached.

What transport and authentication does it use?

The server uses MCP Streamable HTTP transport. Authentication is via a Bearer token (Apify token) sent in the Authorization header.

How does the server handle circular ownership?

It implements Tarjan SCC cycle detection and resolves effective share ownership using a polynomial system (I‑A)^{-1}d with Gauss‑Seidel iteration, then traces ultimate beneficial ownership via depth‑first search with Monte Carlo estimation.

What are the runtime requirements?

The server runs on Apify Standby — always on with sub‑second MCP connection and no cold start. No local installation or separate API keys are required beyond the Apify token.
