Abstract
In the present note, I offer some reflections on the theme of ethical behaviour in the economic sphere based on standard general equilibrium theorising and I propose a few illustrations relevant to the banking sector.
These reflections are extensions from my comments on a paper by Koslowski and Löhnert presented at the Madrid conference and withdrawn from the present collection of essays. The structure of the present note corresponds to the structure of my original comments. The latter were meant to present the views of a financial economist, not specialised in the discussion on ethics.
