Mengyuan Liu, Xia Yang, Yujie Chen

Abstract


Against the backdrop of expanding global economy and intensifying market competition, corporate commercial bribery has become increasingly prevalent. This illegal act severely undermines the fair market competition order, tarnishes corporate reputations and destabilizes society. Violating laws as well as business ethics and integrity, commercial bribery has evolved into a major barrier to sound corporate development and sustained socioeconomic progress. It is therefore urgent to figure out effective ways to curb and prevent such crimes.

As an innovative concept and management tool for modern enterprises, criminal compliance has drawn growing attention for its role in preventing and cracking down on corporate commercial bribery. By establishing and refining compliance systems to standardize corporate operations, criminal compliance ensures business activities abide by legal rules and ethical norms, and effectively lowers legal risks for enterprises.

This paper discusses the current situation, causes, characteristics and harms of corporate commercial bribery crimes from the perspective of criminal compliance. Combined with domestic and foreign real cases, it analyzes the functions and practical applications of criminal compliance in preventing and governing commercial bribery. The study also puts forward targeted strategies and suggestions for crime prevention, aiming to provide practical references for enterprises to build robust criminal compliance systems.

Governments, enterprises and all sectors of society need to make joint efforts to tackle corporate commercial bribery. Through tighter legal supervision, improved institutional arrangements and enhanced corporate culture, we can work together to build a market environment featured with integrity, fairness and good order.
