This is honestly the biggest and best news in this article. Writing concrete numbers into a law is dumb. Especially in white collar crimes. It just feels like an invitation. Like: if you can make more than this, go ahead and do it.
And even for non white collar crimes. Any offence laden with only a fixed monetary fine basically doesn't apply to rich people. Why would a billionaire care for a 5£ parking ticket? That's what so great in Switzerland, they do fines as a portion of wealth.
