OUR PODCASTS FOR SME: CORPORATE COMPLIANCE UNDER ITALIAN LAW
The principle of "personal liability" has always been considered an insuperable obstacle to holding a company criminally liable according to Italian public and criminal law. This obstacle was nevertheless overcome with the implementation of law 231/2001, which sets forth - for the first time - a direct and autonomous responsibility for companies, that arises when people in a company (directors, officers or employees) commit a crime that is expressly listed in law 231 as an eligible crime.
In this podcast episode, Avv. RA Marco Rampf of "RAMPF/EICHNER Avvocati und Rechtsanwälte in Kooperation" provides a general overview on Italian compliance and a first introduction to law 231/2001, which affects not only native Italian companies, but also Italian daughter-companies participated by foreign entities.
