Ethical Issues in Financial Services

Le résumé fourni par la source

“The unfettered love of money is the root of all evil”. Such a claim, which got revised into “Money is the root of all evil”, exaggerated as it is, reflects an ethical bias against money and money markets, and, by extension, finance and financial services that permeates many, if not most, cultures' thinking. Western philosophical culture, particularly as exemplified in Aristotle, defines the very notion of liberal as being free from concerns about money. Aristotle claims that it is all right to study wealth getting, but “to be engaged in it practically is illiberal and irksome.”
