Financial Ethics presents an exploration of this relatively new
subject. The book will follow two different trails, which
eventually are brought together. The first trail is an exploration
in Chapters One and Two of the general nature of the finance
industry, of the institutions which make it up, of the people in it
and the pressures they are under. The first trail also examines the
nature of the reward system in the finance industry. The second
trail is an examination of the guidance people can obtain from four
of the world's great religions on exactly how people ought to
behave when engaged in the financial industry. The second part of
the book is contained in Chapters Three to Nine. If people propose
to advise the financiers to be ethical, it is important to know
what is meant by this, and to call upon reliable sources and why
they are using the four particular religious sources chosen. The
next four chapters extract business and financial commands and one
or two important interpretive writings from Judaism, Christianity,
Islam and Buddhism. Part Three of the book (Chapters Ten to
Thirteen) is a distillation of the concepts from the religions, an
application of the concepts to the modern financial world, and a
discussion of the various organizational tools which might be used
to put them into operation.
