Workshop on "The internal processing of intentional corporate damages - fraud, theft, embezzlement etc."

20th September 2018, 9:30-15 hrs, AGS Legal, Frankfurt

In cooperation with the Professional Association of Compliance Managers

While the literature and also the press, under the impression of "Dieselgate" and similar cases, are primarily concerned with criminal offences "from the sphere" of a company, in daily practice "classic" criminal offences to the detriment of a company occur much more often. When dealing with such cases internally, a balancing act is usually required between civil and criminal law, but also between labour, corporate and insurance law. The aim must be to avoid damage to the company and, if possible, to compensate for it by making claims against those responsible or by insurance payments. At the same time, it must be weighed up to what extent it is necessary to "set an example" from a compliance point of view and adapt the existing compliance system.
