Summary/Abstract: As we well know, a legal entity’s criminal liability has been and remains a controversial issue and is of special interest both at the internal level of the Member States of the European Union, and at European level, several normative acts being adopted in this regard. Thus, on July 22nd, 2003, the Council of the European Union has adopted in Brussels the Framework Decision no. 568/2003 on combating corruption in the private sector, which abrogated the Joint Action no. 742/1998 adopted by the Council based on Art. K.3 of the Treaty on the European Union regarding the corruption in the private sector, in force as of December 31st, 1998. The Council of the European Union has also provided the obligation for the European Commission to draft a report on the assessment of the extent to which the member states have adopted the required measures to comply with the Framework Decision no. 568/2003 on combating corruption in the private sector, the content of which shall be present in our approach.
