  • Organisational Model Pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree 231/01

    Italian Legislative Decree 231/2001 governs companies’ responsibility for offences deriving from the commission of crimes by establishing a system of responsibilities independent of the criminal system for natural persons. The adoption of a “Model 231” implies management of the risk of crimes, independent of the actual desire to commit crimes, and aims to prevent conflicts between the financial interests of the company and those of the parties potentially harmed by the crimes covered by the law.
