Edited and revised specifically for this volume, here are the
best papers from the Tenth National Conference on Business Ethics,
sponsored by Bentley College's Center for Business Ethics.
Throughout, the contributors emphasize the ethical dimensions of
problems and issues that confront the financial services and
accounting industries, issues that are also of critical importance
to business generally. Included among the contributors are members
of the academic community, lawyers, government officials, and
financial services and accounting professionals, each with his or
her own special perspective, but all focused on the central theme:
the importance of ethics and its proper role in the way financial
services and accounting are done. Throughtful, challenging reading,
not only for academics but for finance and accounting professionals
as well.
Part I examines the ethics of the fiduciary relationship between
principals and agents, defining the nature of trust and helping
readers understand the fiduciary responsibility and conflicts of
interest characteristic to the industry. In Part II, the
contributors look at specific issues in ethics and financial
disclosure, with particular focus on nonprofit healthcare
organizations, financial derivatives, and confidentiality in a
professional context as representative cases. More cases are
presented in Part III, examining a variety of situations and
events, such as the BCCI affair and the failure of banks. Part IV
offers lessons from the past and a look toward the future, with
such topics as the ethics of financial derivatives in the history
of economic thought and the development of moral reasoning and
professional judgment of auditors in public practice.
