Fraud & corruption in the pharmaceutical industry in China
In the sales and marketing divisions of many corporations the benefits of engaging in bribery often outweigh the risks of getting caught and so there is often a sub-culture and acceptance of engaging in such unethical activity to secure contracts or performance related commissions.
This article will introduce various unethical fraud and corruption activities that are common in China's pharmaceutical industry, as well as the related challenges and risks of running business in this industry, especially during the pandemic.
