In this March 23, 2019 file photo, Bridgewater Associates Chairman Ray Dalio speaks during the Economic Summit held for the China Development Forum in Beijing, China. The donation by Dalio and his wife Barbara, of Greenwich, Conn., to the state of Connecticut is raising concerns about the transparency of the philanthropic gesture.

Open government experts question how the public will know how their money is being spent.
