A Study of"Failure to Prevent"Model for Combating Economic Crimes in the UK
The UK initially established the model of"failure to prevent"through the new offence of"failure of commercial organizations to prevent bribery",making it a global leader in the governance of commercial corruption and bribery.Subsequently,the UK has gradually extended the"failure to prevent"model to other economic crimes such as tax evasion through legislation,making it a formal choice to combat economic crimes.However,the involvement of some deep-rooted issues such as changing the principle of attribution of criminal liability for unit crimes has led to greater controversy in recent years and is now at a critical moment of reform.The economic crime legislation in the UK is an inspiration to China.The"failure to prevent"model provides a new path for China to transform a new idea and system of the governance of commercial corruption,and it can be used as a regular means to combat economic crimes under the guidance of the criminal policy of combining punishment with leniency,and finally it can also become the justification basis of China's criminal compliance reform,providing new ideas to enrich the theory of criminal compliance.
