Investing.com -- A Singaporean firm with connections to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang is facing investigation by U.S. Commerce Department officials over potential violations of American export restrictions to China.

Megaspeed, which maintains close relationships with Chinese technology companies, is being examined for possibly helping Chinese firms bypass U.S. export controls, according a report from the New York Times, citing to more than six current and former officials and other individuals familiar with the companies. These sources spoke anonymously as the investigation is not public.

The ongoing inquiry raises questions about Nvidia’s tracking systems for its artificial intelligence chips and highlights potential vulnerabilities in American export regulations.

Beyond U.S. scrutiny, Megaspeed is also under investigation by Singaporean police for alleged violations of local laws, though authorities did not provide specific details about the nature of these breaches.

The case underscores growing concerns about the enforcement of technology export controls as competition in the global AI chip market intensifies.
