This paper analyses the compulsory modulation of the amounts of fines imposed respectively on private individuals and legal entities for the same acts, as established in art. 31 ter 1 of the Penal Code (after the reorganisation resulting from the reform of 2015). This obligation becomes particularly significant given the pre-eminence of the fine as the only penalty of mandatory imposition for legal entities. It also calls into question the supposed independence of the criminal liability of the legal entity compared to that imposed on the private individual. Without forgetting that it poses numerous interpretive problems subject to intense doctrinal discussions, which are presented in this paper, adopting a reasoned approach to the matter.
