Corruption has revealed as a big problem in Latin-American and Colombian modern societies. This problem must be solved using several tools from corporation governance, public and private law. Since 1990's international entities and states have made rules to fight against private corruption. All of them advised to prosecute these reprehensible behaviors as a felony. In Colombia, a criminal law reform created corruption in the companies as a felony in 2011. This rule protects not only private interests of companies but also a public interest in the preservation of freedom in the market as well as rules governing unfair competition law.
