In criminology, corporate crime refers to crimes committed either by a corporation (i.e. , a business entity having a separate legal personality from the natural persons that manage its activities), or by individuals that may be identified with a corporation or other business entity. Note that some forms of corporate corruption may not actually be criminal if they are not specifically illegal under a given system of laws. For example, some jurisdictions allow insider trading.

  • In criminology, corporate crime refers to crimes committed either by a corporation (i.e. , a business entity having a separate legal personality from the natural persons that manage its activities), or by individuals that may be identified with a corporation or other business entity. Note that some forms of corporate corruption may not actually be criminal if they are not specifically illegal under a given system of laws. For example, some jurisdictions allow insider trading. Corporate crime overlaps with: white-collar crime, because the majority of individuals who may act as or represent the interests of the corporation are employees or professionals of a higher social class; organized crime, because criminals can set up corporations either for the purposes of crime or as vehicles for laundering the proceeds of crime. Organized crime has become a branch of big business and is simply the illegal sector of capital. It has been estimated that, by the middle of the 1990s, the "gross criminal product" of organized crime made it the twentieth richest organization in the world -- richer than 150 sovereign states . The world’s gross criminal product has been estimated at 20 percent of world trade. (de Brie 2000); and state-corporate crime because, in many contexts, the opportunity to commit crime emerges from the relationship between the corporation and the state.
  • 企業犯罪（きぎょうはんざい）とは、企業が経済活動を行うのに際して利益追求などのために違法な行為（すなわち犯罪行為）を行うことをいう。組織犯罪の一つ。多種・多様な形態がある。個人の犯罪と異なり社会に与える影響は大きく、信用失墜にとどまらず企業存続に関わることも少なくない。ただし、現在の法律においては、組織そのもの自体に対して刑法上の罪は問われにくい。企業犯罪を犯した企業の経営者は、ステークホルダーに対して法的および道義的責任を負う。 近年の企業犯罪など企業を巡る不祥事の多発を背景に企業内において「コンプライアンス（法令遵守）」がキーワードとして注目されている。
