Evgeny Kuyvashev, the head of the Sverdlovsk region [surrounding Yekaterinburg] was quoted as saying that no one would go too far, as otherwise the authorities would take control of it:
"There is nothing bad about businesses making a little money during the championship. But no one should go too far, and there should be no speculative prices for hotels. If businesses abuse the opportunity, we will take this into account," Kuyvashev said.He went on to say that the construction of the stadium "Yekaterinburg-Arena" had been finalized and only a cosmetic touch was yet to be added.
