Abstract

This book delves into the critical theme of compliance, which has become paramount for corporations and legal professionals, particularly in the realm of Economic Criminal Law. Following high-profile corruption scandals, such as "Operation Car Wash"-a landmark case in Brazil-corporate behavior has undergone a significant transformation. This transformation is centered on cultivating a new corporate culture, with compliance programs taking the forefront in managing and coordinating internal controls, thereby establishing clear boundaries for corporate responsibility. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2026.
