As a rule, no; the decision belongs to the company, taken together with its commercial, reputational and recovery dimensions. We separately check for exceptional reporting obligations, and they matter: not reporting an offence that is still being committed can itself be a crime under Article 278 of the Criminal Code, and money laundering, bribery and suspicious transactions can carry their own MASAK reporting duties. A decision not to file is taken only after that layer has been screened.
There is a tactical upside to filing even when it is optional: a criminal complaint can trigger search, seizure and asset-freezing measures that help trace and recover losses, and it secures your procedural rights as an intervening party. Weigh that recovery leverage against the reputational and commercial cost — the choice is rarely only about principle.
