I would add that these companies' lenders and financing institutions also have mechanisms in place. They impose fairly robust compliance measures when it comes to exposure to political risk and product diversion.
One option is to look at what's happening in the insurance sector. Assurances are given in relation to these transactions, so that is another tool. Nevertheless, you are right that the industry has a duty to be more transparent and accountable.
Again, I would say it's important to distinguish between the actions of industry and those of government in respect of product diversions, especially when the sale is complete and does not include a service component. I mentioned this in my opening statement: the preferred business model is one where the sale ties an intellectual property or service requirement to the use of the module or platform. It would then be possible to more effectively monitor how the item was being used, and services could be withdrawn if problems arose.
