Financial Ethics Research & Basics

Seven Pillars Institute provides students and academics research and resources for a clear understanding of finance and ethics. We believe knowledge of finance is essential if young students are to grow up into financially responsible adults.

Education in ethics

Seven Pillars Institute’s three aspects of financial ethics

History of ethics

Examine the origins of ethics and its extensive branches in humanity’s history.

Ethical Decision Making

The religious and secular ethical traditions that are frameworks for ethical decision-making.

Identify ethical issues

We teach students to identify ethical issues that are specific to finance.

;

Financial Autonomy & Responsibility

Financially educated and responsible adults are less likely to be duped by unscrupulous financial service providers. They are more likely to take care of their own financial welfare and thereby not rely on state resources.
