 Results of the Research: the conclusions can be drawn as follows: The element "may harm state finances or the state economy" is a potential loss of state finances or the state economy, not only because the act is "detrimental to state finances or the state economy in real terms", but only "may" cause losses as a possibility or potential loss. The word "may" before the phrase "harming state finances or the state economy" indicates that the criminal offence of corruption is a formal offence, that is, the existence of a criminal offence of corruption is sufficient with the fulfilment of the elements of the formulated act, not with the occurrence of the consequences. With the formulation of the criminal offence of corruption as contained in Article 2 paragraph (1) and Article 3 of Law Number 31 Year 1999 as amended by Law Number 20 Year 2001 as a formal offence, the existence of losses to the state or the state economy does not have to have occurred, because what is meant by a formal offence is an offence that is considered to have been completed by the commission of an act prohibited and threatened with punishment by law. With the formulation of the criminal offence of corruption as a formal offence, the existence of state financial losses or losses to the state economy does not have to have occurred, because a formal offence is an offence that is considered to have been completed by the commission of a prohibited act and is threatened with punishment by law.
