Is your company at risk? Receive a free Compliance diagnosis

In Spain, after the reform of the Penal Code in 2015, a legal person will be criminally liable for crimes committed by natural persons who are part of their company: partners, managers, workers or external collaborators. If convicted, the company as a legal entity will have to face financial sanctions, closure of the premises, suspension of business activity and even the dissolution of the company. This risk affects both companies and SMEs.

However, if the company has a Compliance program in place, it will be able to demonstrate due diligence to maximize its criminal liability, and could even be exempted from the charges. Having a Compliance plan is not mandatory for companies, but not having it implies a significant and unnecessary risk for their assets and business future .
