The financial crisis of 2008 has led to a re-evaluation of the role of financial institutions and their relationship with the wider economy and society. This process has meant an increased questioning of both the conduct of business itself and the principles behind commercial and financial activities. Yet non-western voices have been notably absent from this debate, as have alternatives to the dominant western-derived economic ideologies. From the ancient spiritual wisdom or Dharma of the Jains, there emerges a practical modern philosophy fully in tune with the re-emergence of India as a global economic power. Jain individuals, businesses and charities have played a powerful role in India's rise and within the global Indian Diaspora. Jain communities are noted everywhere for their contributions to business, the professions and science. These successes are based on the principles of interdependence and co-operation, with an emphasis on long-term consolidation rather than short-term bursts of growth. Researchers and students interested in the ethics of finance, accounting and economics will find Jainism and Ethical Finance a scholarly and illuminating evaluation of Jain Dharma as a non-western case study. In the light of current concerns about the way global finance and banking systems operate, this book offers a timely alternative perspective. .

"It's hard to talk clearly about investing and make sense to
ordinary readers at the same time. Katsenelson gives a lucid
explanation of today's markets with sound advice about how to make
money while avoiding the traps that the market sets for exuberant
bulls and frightened bears alike." "A thoroughly enjoyable read. Provides a clear framework for
equity investing in today's 'sideways' and volatile markets useful
to everyone. Clear thinking and clear writing are not often paired
- well done " "The bible for how to invest in the most tumultuous financial
market environment since the Great Depression. A true guidebook for
how to build wealth prudently." "A wonderful, grounded read for new and seasoned investors
alike, Katsenelson explains in plain English why volatility and
sideways markets are a stock picker's best friend." Praise for Active Value Investing "This book reads like a conversation with Vitaliy: deep,
insightful, inquisitive, and civilized." "Thoroughly enjoyable . . for the thoughtful and often
entertaining way in which it is delivered. . . Katsenelson takes
his reader step by step into the mind of the value investor by
relating, in a fictional addendum to Fiddler on the Roof, the story
of Tevye's purchase of Golde, the cow. He also describes his own
big-time gambling evening (he was willing to lose a maximum of $40)
and that of a half-drunken, rowdy fellow blackjack player to stress
the importance of process. He then moves on to the fundamental
principles of active value investing. What differentiates this book
from so many others on value investing is that it describes,
sometimes through the use of case studies, the thinking of a value
investor. Not just his models or his metrics but his assessments.
Katsenelson is an empiricist who weighs facts, looks for
contraindications, and makes decisions. He makes value investing
come alive. This may be a little book, but it's packed with
insights for both novices and experienced investors. And it is a
delight to read."

Accounting Ethics Education: Teaching Virtues and Values gathers a diversity of contributions from invited, well-known experts. It promotes a comprehensive reflection around how ethics can and should be taught to accounting students, discussing and highlighting the most updated research on accounting ethics education, and it is an essential reference in the field. The subject of accounting ethics education is critical to foster ethical awareness that may prevent the way in which one acts or behaves, especially towards others. The point is that accounting education cannot exist without ethical education and accountants must be technically proficient and ethically sensible since ethical behavior is vital to the status and credibility of the accountancy profession. And this sensibility must be developed while the future professional is still cultivating his or her moral and intellectual structure within the school learning environment: character and practical reasoning are crucial because they include not only knowledge of rules and principles, and their correct application but also values and virtues. Examining multiple perspectives, Accounting Ethics Education: Teaching Virtues and Values advances the scholarly debate by providing cuttingedge and insightful research vital for all those interested and immersed in these matters. It begins with a historical perspective of accounting ethics education and continues by exploring challenges, opportunities and developments in the area. It will be of great value to academics, students, researchers and professionals in the fields of accounting, accounting education and ethics.

This book is essential for students and practitioners in accounting, international business, finance, and economics. In a straightforward and readable style, it focuses on the changing accounting and auditing standards in national and global economies in the post-Enron/Arthur Andersen era. The authors clarify the reasons behind and consequences of the accounting profession's failure in auditing and self-regulation, as most firms placed consulting profits ahead of public audit duties. They show how Sarbanes-Oxley solutions, while not perfect, are major contributors to the profession's redemption, and have enabled it to rise to new heights of service and revenue. The book offers a detailed examination of accounting practitioners' past challenges and future prospects. It provides a realistic analysis of specific issues facing accounting and auditing firms today, including the growing problem of independence; the need for one set of international accounting standards and one set of auditing standards; adjustments facing the global financial system; and the impact of the Internet and communication systems on accounting firms.

The German subsidiaries of US-American companies are obliged to complete their annual accounts not only according to the German HGB but also according to the US-GAAP and to submit this to the parent company in the USA. Since the US-GAAP regulations differ greatly from those of the HGB, the annual accounts raise a number of questions mainly regarding evaluation and balancing. The author presents here the general principles of the US-American accounting system, as well as the main positions with regard to approach, evaluation and documentation, above all emphasizing the differences in the two nations' ways of balancing. Using numerous case studies he pays particular attention to the special problems of application in practice.
