This book is about what Mark Carney has called 'the social licence
for financial markets' and how it can point us towards a more
sustainable future. Author David Rouch argues that what it reveals
contrasts sharply with the usual portrayals of markets as places of
unrestrained financial self-interest. Drawing attention to a more
complex reality and the presence of justice-focused aspirations in
finance can positively impact individual, institutional, and
systemic behaviour: change, not imposed by regulators, but emerging
from the very substance of market relationships. The finance sector
should have a key role in addressing humanity's increasingly
pressing sustainability challenges. Yet the relationship between
finance and society has not recovered from the 2008 crisis and the
scandals and austerity that followed. The Covid-19 pandemic and its
economic fallout is sharpening some of the issues and creating new
ones. Recognising that financial markets operate subject to a
social licence has the potential to galvanise market participants
in tackling these challenges, strengthening social solidarity on
which markets also depend, and to provide coordinates for
navigating a way through the post-pandemic social, political and
economic landscape.
