ARIN maintains the registry according to the policies in the
region. These are policies are developed by the community at=20
large, recommended for adoption by the ARIN AC, and ratified=20
by the ARIN Board.
All transfer requests which meet the policies get approved and
updated in the registry. ARIN does turn down transfer requests=20
which don't meet policy, and this potential is often understood=20
and covered in proposed sale documents for IP address blocks.
