Abstract
Taking account of moral issues in finance is nothing new. As written in the Old Testament:
You shall not charge interest to your countrymen: interest on money, food, or anything that may be loaned at interest. You may charge interest to a foreigner, but to your countrymen you shall not charge interest, so that the Lord your God may bless you in all that you undertake in the land which you are about to enter to possess.
(Deuteronomy 23:19–20)
Wealth obtained by fraud dwindles, but the one who gathers by labor increases it.
(Proverbs 13:11)
