Summary/Abstract: The subject of the study are changes in the statutory form of cash benefit resulting from the amendment to the Penal Code of 5 August 2022. The aim of the article is to verify the hypothesis, according to which the essence of the introduced regulations is to strengthen the position of a pecuniary benefit as a repressive and compensatory measure. The adopted solutions mean that the new model of pecuniary benefits breaks away from the political and criminal assumptions that determined the normative shape of this penal measure in the original version of the Criminal Code of 1997.
