Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a property crime and an economic crime?
Property crimes directly affect individual ownership (robbery, theft, fraud), whereas economic and corporate crimes are usually linked to business, financial or corporate activity.
Can a company be liable for economic crimes?
Yes. Spanish law provides for the criminal liability of legal persons, meaning companies can be convicted alongside their directors or employees.
How important is criminal compliance?
Having a regulatory compliance programme can exempt or mitigate a company's criminal liability in the event of an investigation.
