It is no longer just a seasonal gesture or a courtesy. It has become a tool for maintaining connection, signaling attention, and reinforcing trust. At the same time, scrutiny around ethics, compliance, and transparency has intensified. What used to be informal is now often governed by policy. What once felt intuitive now requires deliberate thought. This is where the question naturally arises both for a  global corporate gifting platform like Gift Baskets Overseas , and for our clients: where do we draw the line between ethical corporate gifting and inappropriate influence?
