Partnerships in Building Ethical Norms: Governance & Culture Reform in the Financial Services Industry

October 19, 2020

 

For several years, the New York Fed has drawn attention to culture and conduct in the financial services industry and encouraged the industry to work together to improve standards. To continue this initiative in a virtual environment, the Bank is hosting a series of webinars highlighting current work and scholarship in this area.

The first of these events, “Partnerships in Building Ethical Norms,” took place on October 19, 2020.

The webinar highlighted two initiatives in which the New York Fed has worked with the industry to promote ethical norms: the Education and Industry Forum’s case studies, which present ethical dilemmas faced by junior employees in financial firms, and the FX Global Code, a set of principles for participants in the international foreign exchange market published in 2017.
