« L’homme honorable commence par appliquer ce qu’il veut enseigner ; ensuite il enseigne » [Confucius]

Devenu incontournable dans le champ pénal et dans la vie des entreprises, le droit pénal des affaires, en constante évolution, poursuit deux objectifs :
  • « Protéger les rapports individuels dans le cadre des relations d’affaires en assortissant de sanctions pénales, notamment, les règles encadrant la naissance, la vie et la mort des sociétés commerciales ou les transactions financières et commerciales.
  • Renforcer le caractère contraignant des normes qui règlement l’activité économique. » (1)

En plus de mettre en œuvre des mécanismes spécifiques (définition des incriminations, de la responsabilité pénale, de la sanction ou de la prévision des infractions), la pratique du droit pénal des affaires permet également la rencontre de professionnels provenant d’univers différents.

Malgré les enjeux décrits ci-dessus, aucun cursus approfondi relatif au droit pénal des affaires n’existait jusqu’à alors en Belgique francophone.

Dans ce cadre, Tetra Law est heureux d’être associé au lancement d’une formation universitaire continue, organisée par l’UCL, l’ULB et l’ULiège, en droit pénal des affairesMaître Scarnà aura en effet le plaisir et l’honneur d’y enseigner le droit pénal fiscal, matière et sujet qu’elle affectionne particulièrement et pour laquelle elle allie à ses connaissances techniques approfondies, une pratique qui se veut résolument pragmatique et rigoureuse.
