In this way, different arguments whereby an adequate program of law enforcement must act as an exoneration of criminal liability for the companies and not only like an extenuating of the penalty that will finally be attribute to the corporations are board. From there, the discussion will go through the requirements that the fulfillment programs must have and the bodies of corporate control, in order to prevent the criminal risk of both the entity and its managers.
