Transparency International deplored on Friday 13 January 2023 that companies involved in corruption and money laundering cases are only very rarely convicted under criminal law in Switzerland.

Dans a report , la section suisse de Transparency announced that, for nearly 20 years, companies have been subject to criminal sanctions in Switzerland if they do not take the necessary measures to prevent serious crimes, such as corruption and money laundering . However, the available data indicate that only ten companies have so far been the subject of a final conviction, each time pronounced by the Office of the Public Prosecutor of Switzerland (MPC) following criminal order proceedings. In addition, the Federal Criminal Court has convicted two companies, but they have appealed, so the judgments have not yet come into force.
