There are mainly the following reasons why entrepot trade enterprises are subject to strict inspection. Firstly, entrepot trade can easily become an arbitrage tool. Some enterprises take advantage of the interest rate differentials and exchange rate differentials between domestic and foreign markets, conducting capital arbitrage by fabricating entrepot trade contracts and creating fictional trade backgrounds, thus disrupting the financial order. Secondly, there are tax risks. Some enterprises may transfer profits and evade taxes through means such as unreasonable pricing, harming the national tax interests. Thirdly, there is the risk of money laundering. Unlawful elements may mix in illegal funds through the complex transaction procedures and capital flow directions of entrepot trade to achieve the purpose of money laundering. Fourthly, trade data distortion. False entrepot trade can cause trade data to be inflated or deflated, affecting the accurate judgment of the country on the trade situation and policy formulation. Therefore, in order to maintain the economic and financial order and safeguard national interests, it is necessary to conduct strict inspections on entrepot trade enterprises.
