Criminal law provisions also include regulations that can safeguard consumers, such as licensing and supervision mechanisms. Indirect protection afforded to customers in the event of criminal acts in the field of banking is established through a series of statutory regulations, such as Law No. 8/1999 regarding Consumer Protection, as well as regulations that can ensnare wrongdoers, such as Law No. 10/1998 regarding Banking, Law No. 11/2008 regarding Electronic Information and Transactions, and Law No. 20/2001 regarding the Eradication of Corruption.
