How should we create wealth in societies, and why is it right and necessary to do so? What improves the lives of the largest number of people? And how do we, living in a globalised world caught in an age of financial and ecological turbulence, respond to the differing needs of individuals and institutions?
In The Good Banker Stephen Green, Chairman of HSBC, puts forward a modest proposal: despite the current crisis, the world may well need a financial industry. What we need inside that industry are good bankers.
Do businesses - and banks in particular - have a duty to society that goes beyond the creation of profit?Does open market capitalism remain our best hope for creating wealth that benefits all aspects of society? And how can individuals, who work in profit-making workplaces, combine their moral, spiritual and ethical selves with their everyday work?
The Good Banker presents us with a possibility: that through good bankers come good banking, and through good banking comes a richer, more dynamic world.
