This award-winning book comprises multiple finance and ethics case studies.

The purpose of the book is twofold. First, the case studies teach readers how to evaluate and determine resolutions to ethical issues in finance.

Second, the reader will enjoy a journey with the author, a woman, over her years working in finance, through the use of case studies. Prefaced by the additional of video introductions, these studies focus on ethical issues in finance which the author encountered over nearly a 30-year career in the industry.

There are 10 case studies extracted from different sectors of finance.

This broad range is a consequence of the author’s experience from almost all sides of the business: the buy side, the sell side, equity research in Asia, equity sales, mutual funds, hedge funds, the finance academy, and consulting. Each case study has an engaging narrative describing the background, transactions, players, and ethical issues.

The ethical issue is analyzed and resolvedusing the appropriate theories of moral philosophy.

Descriptions and analyses are rigorous yet comprehensible, approachable, and entertaining. Apart from ethics determinations, the material in the book covers and explains a variety of specific, and even complex, financial transactions.

In every transaction there is an explanation of the roles of various players involved.

In this way, readers will learn about the work of people in different positions in finance from investment bankers and equity traders to portfolio managers and equity analysts.

Through these case studies, readers also will get an understanding of major financial transactions and activities such as IPOs, secondary offerings, equity trading, and equity valuations. The book will appeal to practitioners, college and high school students, and lecturers who can use it to supplement courses in finance or business ethics.
