Dealing with corporate crimes outside the criminal justice system and restoring the processes, in addition to supporting the victims, can prevent damage to the reputation and credibility of companies. This research wants to investigate the possibility of using restorative methods in dealing with corporate crime in a descriptive-analytical way and concerning library sources. The findings of the research indicate that regarding corporate crimes, it is possible to apply restorative mechanisms through the use of a horizontal approach along with a vertical approach and strengthening the responses according to the needs of the victims. To overcome the challenges of the classical restorative methods, it is necessary to use new effects, such as the use of mediation structures and the online dispute resolution system.
