The article presents a comparative analysis of the regulation of liability for criminal bankruptcy under the laws of the Russian Federation and countries such as the USA, Germany, Spain, France, Great Britain, Australia. At the same time, not only the current criminal legislation regulating liability for committing crimes in the field of bankruptcy was considered, but also other laws that carry out its legal regulation. Since the registration of crimes related to criminal bankruptcy in the Russian Federation is declining, they are poorly disclosed, and law enforcement practice often considers the actions of suspects as normal relations of economic entities regulated by the Federal Law “On Insolvency (Bankruptcy)” and the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, there are significant difficulties in attracting such persons to criminal liability. In this regard, solving similar problems in the legislation of other countries, identifying the most appropriate and effective ways of government response to criminal bankruptcies was the goal of this study. A comparative analysis of foreign and Russian legislation has shown that in other countries, when regulating liability for various types of criminal bankruptcy, other types of liability are more often used. As a result, it was concluded that criminal law does not always play a decisive role in counteracting criminal bankruptcy, which should be taken into account when improving Russian legislation in this area. This means that countering these economic crimes can be no less effective without the use of criminal repression, but at the same time, the level of inevitability of responsibility can be higher due to the use of other types of it.
