Summary

The scandals of recent years have led to a variety of reforms to financial institutions. But without an industry-wide commitment to something other than pure profit, calls for a greater emphasis on ethics will be largely ignored. McClean argues that a collective move towards stewardship is necessary to restore ethical behavior and public confidence. Drawing on practical examples and offering new policy recommendations, this unique philosophical study paints a picture of what a truly ethical trading future might look like.
