Die European Business Ethics Research Conference findet 2018 - nach dem ausserordentlichen Erfolg im letzten Jahr - bereits zum zweiten Mal in Wien statt. Das Thema heuer lautet "Corruption and Beyond - Fraudulent Behavior in and of Corporations"


Beyond Corruption – Fraudulent Behavior in and of Corporations
Recent business scandals like the corruption allegations at Airbus, the Volkswagen emission scandal, or the Wells Fargo account fraud scandal cast serious doubts on the effectiveness of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts of business enterprises. While CSR programs have become an established part of business practice over the last years, and most large companies have introduced ethics guidelines, codes of conduct, compliance trainings and other instruments which should safeguard the ethical behavior of their managers and employees, these measures obviously do not prevent managers from wrongdoing. It seems that corruption, deception of clients and customers, misleading statements vis-à-vis investors and shareholders or embezzlement of corporate assets remain a universally prevalent phenomenon in business, even if the practices and degree of fraudulent behavior may vary in relation to cultural settings or in different sectors.
