With so many government funds pouring into economies across the globe to mitigate the economic damage of COVID‑19, the potential for fraud and abuse is large.

Anti-corruption program assessment, they assert, is crucial. See “A Quick Guide to Getting Started With Compliance Program Metrics” (May 16, 2018).
