About this book

Banking with Integrity provides rich and in-depth case studies of banks which were doing well during the financial crisis of 2007-2010. While other banks went bankrupt, were nationalized, or struggled for survival some of the featured cases increased market share, attracted more customers and avoided home evictions of their clients.

Reviews

'By analysing the structures, policies, executive compensation schemes, and behaviours of banks that prospered in the financial crisis, the authors demonstrate that an integrity-based approach to banking can work, even in the financial sector, and deliver a proof of concept for humanistic management.' - Efma Journal
