ABSTRACT

This study analyzes the current status and challenges of records management among private subsidy program operators to ensure accountability in administering government subsidies derived from public funds and proposes measures to strengthen their records management practices. The research examined related laws and regulations in the United States, the European Union, and Australia, investigating cases of records management support for privately operated government-funded agencies. The analysis reveals that international jurisdictions provide records management support to private government-funded agencies receiving public funds. In addition, an examination of domestic government subsidy records management identifies significant gaps: records pertaining to subsidy program operations and performance lack integrated management, and no public support system exists for records management by private subsidy program operators. In-depth interviews illuminate how inadequate documentation of program operations and performance by private subsidy program operators leads to the weakening of government subsidy programs. Based on these findings, the study proposes improvements to the Subsidy Management Act and recommends records management education to support the establishment of systematic records management frameworks for private subsidy program operators.
