Request information
Organic Law 1/2015 amending the Criminal Code considers crime prevention models as possible elements of exoneration and mitigation of the criminal liability of the legal entity, as long as they meet a series of requirements.
This regulation considers the provisions of Law 1/2015 with respect to the requirements of crime prevention models and complements them with the best international practices established in the field of social responsibility, compliance and risk management.
The external certification audit of the crime prevention model carried out by an independent, expert and prestigious third party such as AENOR, is one of the most reliable, effective and transparent ways to respond to these requirements and to demonstrate the explicit and public commitment of the organisation and its leaders to the culture of compliance.
