Kara Tan Bhala's New Book Bridges Finance And Ethics

NEW YORK, May 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Global financial markets give too little credence to ethics and university finance courses lack in-depth discussion of the subject. For too long we have viewed finance and ethics as separate disciplines but International Investment Management: Theory, Ethics and Practice bridges this gap.

This textbook is one of the first to: provide a comprehensive understanding of investment principles, synthesize three theories of finance, and apply ethics in financial practice focusing on Asian cases. The book reflects realities of modern international finance.

Author Kara Tan Bhala is President and Founder of think-tank Seven Pillars Institute for Global Finance and Ethics. She draws on more than two decades of experience in finance. "The separation between ethics and finance was artificially and wrongly imposed. With the global financial crisis, we are now seeing a renaissance of ethics in finance. This book is at the forefront of the emerging trend," says Dr. Tan Bhala.

University professors and lecturers are encouraged to incorporate International Investment Management into finance and finance related courses taught at business and law schools.

Praise for International Investment Management:

"Ethics and Finance should be synonymous, and Kara's book is a good guide for moving towards a world where that would be true," says Chris Richey, Managing Director for Neosho Capital.

 "I admire Dr. Kara Tan Bhala's initiative and courage in shaping the subject of financial ethics and promoting its practice in investment management," says Sid Velakacharla, Partner at Indus Capital Partners, LLC.

Incorporating ethics into international investment is not just good analysis, it is a critical evolution towards creating a well-functioning global financial system. Authors Kara Tan Bhala, Warren Yeh and Raj Bhala, have written a book to aid in this quest. You may purchase the book from Routledge (Taylor & Francis Group).
