Panama, January 14, 2026. Morgan & Morgan contributed to the Chambers & Partners White-Collar Crime Global Guide 2025. The Panama chapter was authored by partners Inocencio Galindo and Omar Rodríguez, and senior associates Maria Eugenia Brenes and Joy Paull Torres.
In the Law and Practice section, Morgan & Morgan provides insights into Panama’s white-collar crime framework, covering key issues such as corporate and financial crimes, investigation techniques, enforcement measures, defense strategies, and penalty agreements. The Trends and Developments section explores how criminality is evolving within corporate structures and digital networks, prompting reforms on collective responsibility, systemic corruption, and data protection. In Panama, this is reflected in three major developments: criminal liability for legal entities, the General Anti-Corruption Law (Bill 291), and data protection protocols under Law 81 of 2019.
This guide is a valuable resource for businesses and legal professionals seeking to navigate complex compliance challenges and stay ahead of emerging risks in Panama and beyond.
