Integrity at work in financial services 5 : a practical guide to trust and integrity dilemmas

Since the publication of Integrity at Work in Financial Services 4, and following the probing by the Parliamentary Commission on Banking Standards as to whether banking is a profession, we have seen the establishment of the Banking Standards Board which is examining ways of improving standards in banking; “professionalism” is accepted as being a significant ingredient in achieving this. As members of a professional body we regard ourselves as professionals in terms of our standards of knowledge, skills and behaviour; our conduct. This book provides an excellent means of helping us to ensure that we continue to live up to those ideals.
