Corruption risk is low in Taiwan’s defence sector. Parliamentary oversight is well established and effective, as is external scrutiny of financial management, while personnel management processes contain strong anti-corruption provisions. Nevertheless, corruption risk is high for military operations and there remain lingering issues surrounding non-transparent defence procurement.
