Medical resource shortages are increasingly challenging for many countries battling the COVID-19 pandemic. In response to the need, various companies are donating money, personal protective equipment (PPE), ventilators, medicines, disinfectants, food, and other valuable resources. Compliance risks should be carefully considered when providing this valuable assistance to ensure that the resources are put in the right hands with no strings attached. Meanwhile, during the COVID-19 outbreak, the government offers various subsidies to support foreign businesses. Government subsidies beneficiaries face the potential risk of non-compliance.
