Abstract

Money laundering is one of the crimes that has a wide impact, both economically and socially. With the increasing complexity of global financial networks, financial institutions must be more responsible in preventing money laundering practices. The existence of strong and transparent financial institutions is essential to maintain the integrity of the financial system. Using normative juridical research methods, this study analyzes the regulations that govern sanctions and law enforcement practices. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the sanctions applied have provided a deterrent effect to financial institutions that violate the law. The results of the study show that although there are several institutions affected by sanctions, in general, the implementation of sanctions has not been effective in providing a significant deterrent effect. These obstacles arise due to the lack of strict supervision, weak international cooperation, and inconsistencies in law enforcement. In addition, the proactive attitude of financial institutions in fulfilling reporting obligations also needs to be improved. Therefore, reforms in the sanctions system and improved law enforcement mechanisms are needed to create a stronger deterrent effect against financial institutions involved in money laundering

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of corporate criminal liability for major corruption crimes based on Law Number 1 of 2023 concerning the Criminal Code (New Criminal Code). Using the normative juridical method, this study examines the change in the criminal law paradigm from an individualistic orientation to the recognition of corporations as independent criminal law subjects. The results of the study show that the new Criminal Code provides a comprehensive legal basis for the applicationĀ  of the principle of corporate criminal liability, through explicit provisions in Articles 45-51 that affirm the form of offense, the mechanism of proof, and the type of criminal sanctions against corporations. Additional crimes such as freezing business activities, dissolving corporations, and state supervision are considered more efficient in encouraging institutional reform than fines alone. However, the effectiveness of implementing this norm is still faced with institutional challenges, limited law enforcement capacity, and the need for uniform prosecution guidelines. Conceptually, the new Criminal Code marks the transformation of national criminal law towards a system that emphasizes a balance between substantive justice, legal certainty, and social benefit. Consistent, proportionate, and evidence-based law enforcement is the key to the realization of the rule of law against corporate entities in Indonesia.

Abstract

Crimes committed by juveniles are a serious problem that requires comprehensive handling, prioritizing the principles of humanity and justice. The conventional retributive approach to criminal law is considered inappropriate for the characteristics of adolescent psychological development and their rehabilitation needs. This article aims to examine the urgency of implementing restorative justice in handling juvenile crime in Indonesia from the perspective of humanity and justice. The research method used is normative legal research with statutory, conceptual, and comparative approaches. The results of the study indicate that restorative justice provides a more humane framework for resolution because it prioritizes restoring relationships between perpetrators, victims, and the community, rather than simply retaliation. This approach aligns with Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System, which prioritizes diversion and the best interests of children. The application of restorative justice has been proven to reduce recidivism rates, encourage perpetrator responsibility, and restore victims' dignity more effectively than conventional punishment. This study concludes that restorative justice is not merely an alternative but a necessity in a just and humane juvenile criminal justice system
