5 The brazilian Government is under increasing pressure from the public opinion to handle the high levels of bribery and corruption in the country Federal Law /2012: New Money Laundering Law Suppressed the exhaustive list of necessary preceding crimes to money laundering Because of that, nowadays it is enough that the offender is aware that the money was obtained through a criminal act, including misdemeanors, specially Jogo do Bicho (brazilian illegal gambling) Expansion of legal entities obliged to register and communicate money laundering activities 5
6 Federal Law /2013: Organized Crime Law plea bargaining agreement environmental capture of electromagnetic, optical or acoustic signs controlled action access to telephone and telematic registries removal of financial, banking and fiscal secrecy police infiltration in investigations cooperation between federal, state and municipal institutions and agencies, in the search of evidence and information that might be useful in an investigation or criminal lawsuit Federal Law /2013: Corporate Anticorruption Law Strict Liability of legal entities Extraterritoriality Prediction of administrative and judicial sanctions Prevision of leniency agreements Integrity programs as a mitigating factor in sanctions 6

8 CONCEPT OF INTEGRITY COMPANIES OF THE FUTURE PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION 8
9 IN THE CONTEXT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE: INTEGRITY AS A BUSINESS Make or break factor for companies COMPLIANCE PROGRAM INTEGRITY PROGRAM Based in rules and the observance of regulations Based in people and the observance of values To positively impact the world and improve their performances, companies must go beyond the simple checking of compliance exercises 9

11 69% of consumers are likely to purchase stock in a company well known for its ethicalstandards 75% of consumers said they would be happier to work for a company with a strong CSR program ( Corporate Social Responsibility ) : the companies recognized as the most ethical in the world overcame in 3,3% the S&P

13 IN THE CONTEXT OF PUBLIC GOVERNANCE: Public Integrity Policies Governmental legitimization factor The sutil corruption of public goods and services consumes government legitimacy. The corruption in the supply of public goods and services and in the imposition of costs sets a cloud over governments that seek for public legitimacy (Susan Rose Ackerman) O GLOBO, 26 de junho de
14 Tone at the top also in the Public Administration Tolerance to corruption in certain fields of public life encourages more and more people, with time, to board into corruption (Susan Rose Ackerman) Corporate and political corruption in the public machinery must end, as long as we do not accept plea bargaining agreements from arrested individuals... A condemned individual may appeal to the superior courts before an arrest order is issued... Car Wash Operation has a date to end 14
15 FIGHTING CORRUPTION IN BRAZIL: QUIXOTIC ACTIONS Today the production of results still depends on: Personal initiatives Alignment of institutions Territorial jurisdiction Support from superior courts Support from the population A free and acting press YOU CANNOT FIGHT CORRUPTION WITH A STRONG REGULATION ALONE Broad public policies that involve all public entities and guarantee the enforcement of instruments for combating organized crime are necessary: Transparency and prevention policies Strong and independent institutions Social involvement More effective punishment and internal control mechanisms 15
16 MAIN PUBLIC POLICIES AGAINST CORRUPTION IN ESPIRITO SANTO STATE (2015) If our helmsmen do not quickly perceive the change in wind direction, they will be faded to democratic obsolescence. They will remain, with their outdated values, permanently stuck in the time of oblivion, and condemned to the implacable judgement of history Rodrigo Janot 16
