Recent Ethical Issues in Investment Banking

John N. Reynolds and Edmund Newell

Chapter 6 in Ethics in Investment Banking, 2011, pp 75-99 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The specific ethical issues that characterised the financial crisis included manipulating credit ratings, the mis-selling of securities, unauthorised trading and the short-selling of bank shares. In addition, there are long-standing ethical concerns regarding practices such as market manipulation and insider dealing. The ethical implications of these practices are not uniform – it would be difficult to objectively consider some of these activities to be unethical, whereas others are clearly unethical.
