- Authors
Proença de Carvalho, Francisco; Fuzeta da Ponte, Mafalda
- Abstract
Considering the growing trend towards the accountability of legal persons and their managers, compliance programs have assumed great relevance within the life of companies. These programs include in-house investigations, which aim to ascertain / confirm the practice of certain unlawful acts. With the present text, we intend to summarise the main limitations that this type of investigations face in light of Portuguese Law, highlighting that, within a "business criminal law" context, these investigations are becoming a previous or parallel phase to the "formal" criminal proceeding.
